Question

Ead the excerpt from chapter 7 of Night.

Answer 1

Answer:

They demonstrate the despair of the situation.

They reflect an attitude of being resigned to one’s fate.

Explanation:

The given question refers to the novel Night written by Elie Wiesel, a Romanian-born American writer, professor, political activist, Nobel laureate, and Holocaust survivor. It tells about Wiesel's and his father's experiences in the concentration camps at Auschwitz and Buchenwald, where they were imprisoned in 1944 and 1945. His father lost his life before the liberation of these camps, but Wiesel survived and told his story.

You haven't pointed out which words and phrases are underlined in the given passage, but I can answer your question anyway. The situation the narrator is in is hopeless, desperate, but he seems to have accepted his horrible fate. This is why the third and fifth options are correct.

There is no apprehension, disappointment, or uncertainty in the narrator's thoughts. He tells us about the horrors he experienced as something unsurprising, something that he became accustomed to. That was his reality. This is why the rest of the options can't be correct.
