Answer:

The correct answer is B: It is with a profound sense of humility that I accept the honor you have chosen to bestow upon me. I know: your choice transcends me. This both frightens and pleases me.

Step-by-step explanation:

Elie Wiesel received the Nobel Peace Prize Award in Oslo, on December 10, 1986. According to Wiesel, this prize belongs to the Jewish people and to Holocaust survivors and their children.

On the other hand, he is frightened because he is not sure he has the right to represent the numerous people who died in the Holocaust and he does not know if he is the right person to speak for all these people. With these statements, Wiesel shows his modesty and humility, by identifying himself with the Jewish people and their destiny.
