Question

Which line from the article about Wiesel describes how he responded to the crimes against humanity he experienced?

A. "His career spanned nearly 60 years."
B. "He used his platform to advocate for the causes he was most passionate about."
C. "Wiesel chose to steer away from bitterness and instead to channel his horrible memories into his writing and studies."
D. "In 1986, Wiesel was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize."

Answer 1

C. "Wiesel chose to steer away from bitterness and instead to channel his horrible memories into his writing and studies."

The question asked about Wiesel's response to the atrocities. Options A and D are facts about events in Wiesel's life. They don't speak about his choices. Option B shows what Wiesel decided to do with his popularity as an expert in the Holocaust survivor experience. Option C is the best choice, because it explains how Wiesel responded to his time as a persecuted Jew. It shows that he chose to speak about his grief rather than become bitter.
