    Why does Oscar seem hesitant about holding out hope for the survival of Rudi's father?

    • So many Jews have been killed in the camps.

    • Rudi's father was weak.

    • He hopes to adopt Rudi.

    Correct Answer

    Explanation
    Oscar seems hesitant about holding out hope for the survival of Rudi's father because he is aware of the large number of Jews who have been killed in the camps.
