The general answer given below about the passage "Indifference the, is not only a sin, it is a punishment" is likely to help you answer the question. The reason for this general answer is that I was unable to find the answer choices for this question online:

- In his speech "The Perils of Indifference," Elie Wiesel discusses how apathy in front of human suffering can lead to a tragedy.

- By saying that indifference is a punishment, he means that being indifferent (doing nothing) when seeing others suffering is the same as hurting them.

- When we do not help a victim, we are siding with the criminal. When we do not feed the hungry or aide the sick, we are watching them die. Therefore, indifference is as cruel as hurting others.

  • Elie Wiesel is a survivor of the Holocaust. Therefore, he knows what it feels like to be beaten, starved, tortured and have no one at all help you.
  • Wiesel knows, thus, how awful indifference is. As he suffered in the hands of the Nazi, he wondered why no one did anything to help.
  • Why didn't other countries intervene to free the prisoners? Why were people watching millions of people die, killed by a cruel regime, without doing anything to stop it?
  • In "The Perils of Indifference," Wiesel condemns inaction, apathy, inertia.
  • According to him, <u>doing nothing is as good as harming</u>. If you don't help, you contribute to the suffering.
  • The only one who gains something from indifference is the criminal, the aggressor.

Hoochie [10]

“Thinking back later he could never decide whether the hands or Beatty’s reaction to the hands gave him the final push toward murder. The last rolling thunder of the avalanche stoned down about his ears, not touching him.

Beatty grinned his most charming grin. “Well, that’s one way to get an audience. Hold a gun on a man and force him to listen to your speech...Go ahead now, you second-hand litterateur, pull the trigger.’ He took one step toward Montag” (Bradbury).
