Read the following quote: "We were the masters of nature, the masters of the world. We had transcended everything--death, fatigue, our natural needs. We were stronger than cold and hunger, stronger than the guns and the desire to die..." (Wiesel 87).
How does Wiesel use a literary device to express a juxtaposition (contrast) in this quote?
He uses foreshadowing to hint at the uprising that occurs at the end of chapter seven.
He uses metaphor to express the dire helplessness and the loss of faith that the prisoners are experiencing on the march.
He uses visual imagery to show how the prisoners outnumber the SS guards, and if they were stronger, the prisoners could overthrow the SS guards.
He uses parallelism to emphasize how the prisoners, in moments, feel strangely invigorated and empowered by their survival despite their dire circumstances and oppression.

Read the following quote: "It had to be Juliek. He was playing a fragment of a Beethoven concerto. Never before had I heard such a beautiful sound. In such silence...He was paying his life. His whole being was gliding over the strings" (Wiesel 95).
Which claim would best be supported using the above quote as evidence?
One contributes to their own demise by playing the music of the oppressive party.
Even in the face of torture, a group can be moved to violent resistance if a strong and vocal leader takes charge.
Music has the power to unite enemies in times of war, and without music, people would not be able to recognize their common humanity.
Even in the face of dehumanization, one can quietly rebel by keeping their dignity and inspiring others through art.

Read the following quote: "German laborers were going to work. They would stop and look at us without surprise. One day when we had come to a stop, a worker took a piece of bread out of his bag and threw it into a wagon. There was a stampede. Dozens of starving men fought desperately over a few crumbs. The worker watched the spectacle with great interest" (Wiesel 100).
This quote proves what about German citizens during this time in the war?
In 1945, most German citizens still did not know that the Nazis were imprisoning and killing various groups.
Many Germans knew about the Nazi's imprisonment of various groups, and many Germans dehumanized the prisoners, seeing the prisoners as objects for their own amusement.
Most German citizens felt great sympathy for the prisoners, but they were frightened to speak out against the Nazis.
In 1945, many Germans regretted their previous antisemitism and were moved to give to Jewish charities at the end of the war.

Read the following quote: "In the wagon where the bread had landed, a battle had ensued. Men were hurling themselves against each other, trampling, tearing at and mauling each other. Beasts of prey unleashed, animal hate in their eyes. An extraordinary vitality possessed them, sharpening their teeth and nails " (Wiesel 101).
How does this quote illustrate the change that the prisoners have undergone through the concentration camp and the death march?
They have become more empathetic and dignified. They are more concerned with the survival of the group than of their individual selves.
They have become mentally unstable and are unable to differentiate between reality and hallucinations.
They are more empowered than ever to rebel against the SS guards, and they have accepted that some of them may have to die in the fight.
They have lost some of their humanity in order to survive; they are more concerned with their own individual survival than the group's survival.

Read the following quote: "Then, two 'gravediggers' grabbed him by the head and feet and threw him from the wagon, like a sack of flour" (Wiesel 99).
What is the effect of the simile in the above quote?
The simile better explains how the prisoners ensured that disease did not spread from one person to another during the death march.
The simile demonstrates the extreme cruelty of SS physicians like Dr. Mengele.
The simile emphasizes how food is the other motivating factor on the death marches, and none of the prisoners care anymore about their families.
The simile emphasizes how frail the prisoners have become and how desensitized to death and dead bodies the prisoners are.
