Question

Need help with "Night" by Elie Wiesel

Which statement best describes the viewpoint held by many of the Jews of Sighet when they hear about the atrocities committed by the Nazis elsewhere?

1. They view the atrocities as having occurred to strangers in a faraway places and so fail to see how they will affect Sighet

2. They view atrocities with concern but are too wrapped up in the dangers they faced to spend time thinking of others

3. They quickly and correctly recognize that atrocities are a warning to them to try to escape

4. They gradually realize that it is their responsibility to take action to protect against whom the atrocities are committed

Answer 1

It has been a while since I have read the book, but I think 1 is correct. They don't even realise how bad the camps are and they willingly comply to the Nazis

Answer 2

Answer:1) They view the atrocities as having occurred to strangers in a faraway places and so fail to see how they will affect Sighet

Step-by-step explanation:

Wiesel, the author of "Night" explains that about two thousand Jews could escape from the concentration camps. Elie mentions Moishe the Beadle as an example of it and he says that Moishe tried to inform the Jews of Sighet of what he had experienced but people refused to listento him and they did nor believe him. They did not want to see the reality of what was happening.
