“I’ve been summoned to an extraordinary meeting of the council. Something must have happened.”

The good story he had been in the middle of telling us was to remain unfinished.

“I’m going there,” he went on. “I shall be back as soon as I can. I’ll tell you all about it. Wait for me.”

We were prepared to wait for some hours. The backyard became like the hall outside an operating room. (10)

In the paragraphs above, Elie Wiesel uses a simile that suggests -

• Elie’s father is an accomplished storyteller.

• Elie’s father is a prominent community member.

• Many people are nervously pacing in the backyard for news.

• Many people are expecting Elie’s father to return with good news.

Which line from the selection provides the best evidence that the Jews of Sighet are optimistic despite Hitler’s plan of extermination?

• Then one day they expelled all the foreign Jews for Sighet.

• At that time is was still possible to obtain emigration permits for Palestine.

• The Germans were already in the town, the Fascists were already in power, the verdict had already been pronounced, yet the Jews of Sighet continued to smile.

• We were no longer allowed to go into restaurants or cafes, to travel on the railway, to attend synagogue, to go out into the street after six o’clock.
