Read this excerpt from Night by Elie Wiesel.

Then the train resumed its journey, leaving in its wake, in a snowy field in Poland, hundreds of naked orphans without a tomb.

What does the image in this excerpt refer to?

the fact that the burial grounds in Poland are already full

the Polish children who no longer have parents

the train’s route through a snowy cemetery

the many abandoned bodies that cannot be buried

The answer is “The many abandoned bodies that cannot be buried” The reason for this is because the book is about the Holocaust and since they would kill them in such a vast amount and since they didn’t care for them they would just pile up the bodies.
