Question

Read the excerpt from chapter 7 of Night. "Throw out all the dead! Outside, all the corpses!” The living were glad. They would have more room. Volunteers began the task. They touched those who had remained on the ground. "Here’s one! Take him!” The volunteers undressed him and eagerly shared his garments. Then, two "gravediggers” grabbed him by the head and feet and threw him from the wagon, like a sack of flour. In this passage, the author’s viewpoint is that the situation causes people to act in ways that are unfeeling and disrespectful toward those who have died. What evidence supports this viewpoint? Select two options. “The living were glad. They would have more room.” “Volunteers began the task.” “They touched those who had remained on the ground.” “Here’s one!

Explanation: In the given excerpt from chapter 7 of Night, we can see how a group of people decided to throw away the corpses of people that have died. with this passage the author expresses his viewpoint that some situation can cause people to act in disrespectful ways toward those who have died. The phrases that support this viewpoint are "The living were glad. They would have more room" we can see that instead of being sad or disturbed, the living were glad about the situation, and “Then, two ‘gravediggers’ grabbed him by the head and feet and threw him from the wagon, like a sack of flour” the comparison between the corpses and sacks of flour, demonstrates the disrespectful treatment.
