Night Ch.1-5

Eliezer is separated from his mother and sisters at Birkenau. This indicates that he is separated from some members of his family, but not his father. Therefore, the correct answer is "His mother and sisters."

The majority of Eliezer's meals consist of bread and soup. This is evident from the context of the question, as Eliezer's meals are described as being composed of these two items. The other options, such as meat and potatoes, gruel and beans, or bread and butter, are not mentioned as being the main components of his meals. Therefore, the correct answer is bread and soup.

Moshe the Beadle tries to warn the Jews about the Nazi threat when he returns to the village. This can be inferred from the fact that he tells Eliezer and the other villagers about his experiences in the concentration camp, including the mass killings and the cruelty of the Nazis. His intention is to make the Jews aware of the danger they are facing and to urge them to take action to protect themselves. Moshe's efforts to warn and inform the Jews about the Nazi threat demonstrate his concern for their safety and his desire to prevent further atrocities.

Dr. Mengele is the correct answer because he was a notorious Nazi doctor who conducted inhumane medical experiments on prisoners at Auschwitz during World War II. He was known for his cruel and unethical practices, including selecting prisoners for gas chambers and performing gruesome experiments on twins. His actions earned him the reputation as the "Angel of Death."

Eliezer and his family are from Sighet. This is evident from the question itself, which asks about the town they are from, and the answer options provided. The other options, Romania, Transilvania, and Budapest, are all incorrect as they are either a country or a region, not a specific town. Therefore, the correct answer is Sighet.

Idek whips Eliezer because Eliezer walked in on Idek having sex.

Madame Schachter envisions the fires of the crematorium. This suggests that she has a premonition or hallucination about the horrifying fate that awaits them at the concentration camps. Her visions serve as a foreshadowing of the atrocities and mass killings that the Jewish prisoners will face in the gas chambers and crematoriums. This adds to the overall sense of fear and dread experienced by the characters in the novel.

The correct answer is "Beat her." This suggests that when the men on the train are unable to endure Madame Schachter's screaming, they resort to physically assaulting her in order to make her stop.

Eliezer's father gives him a knife and a spoon as inheritance. This suggests that Eliezer's father values practical and essential items that can be used for survival. The knife symbolizes protection and self-defense, while the spoon represents sustenance and nourishment. These items are crucial for Eliezer's survival in the harsh conditions of the Holocaust.

Eliezer later finds out that the French girl at Buna was a Jew passing as Aryan. This suggests that she was hiding her true identity in order to avoid persecution and possible death as a Jew during the Holocaust. This revelation adds to the theme of deception and survival that is prevalent throughout the book.

The Kaddish is a Jewish prayer recited in memory of the deceased. It is considered to be one of the most important prayers in Jewish tradition and is recited by mourners during the mourning period and on certain occasions throughout the year. The Kaddish does not refer to a book of Jewish scripture, a Jewish holiday, or the Jewish word for "Holocaust". Therefore, the correct answer is that it is the Jewish prayer for the dead.

Eliezer recruits Moshe the Beadle to teach him the Kabbalah. The Kabbalah is a mystical and esoteric tradition within Judaism that seeks to understand the nature of God and the universe. Eliezer is interested in delving deeper into his faith and exploring the deeper spiritual teachings of Judaism, which is why he seeks out Moshe the Beadle as his mentor.

The question asks about the type of infection Eliezer contracts, and the answer is "None of the above." This means that Eliezer does not contract any of the infections listed (ear, mouth, stomach, or skin). The question does not provide any further information about the specific infection Eliezer contracts.

Eliezer loses his gold crown to Franek.

The correct answer is "All of the above." This is because the inmates who watch Eliezer and the new arrivals at Birkenau are enraged by multiple factors. They are enraged that the new arrivals let themselves be brought to the camp, indicating a sense of resignation and lack of resistance. They are also enraged that the new arrivals were unaware of what was happening in Auschwitz, highlighting the ignorance and deception surrounding the atrocities. Additionally, they are enraged by the fact that the new arrivals are walking to their death, a grim and horrifying reality. Lastly, they are enraged by their own powerlessness to stop or help each other, emphasizing the despair and hopelessness in the camp.

During the beginning of World War II, the Jewish community in Sighet and most of the world felt indifference towards the Germans. This means that they were not particularly concerned or interested in the actions or intentions of the Germans. This could be due to a lack of awareness or understanding of the severity of the situation, or perhaps a disbelief that such atrocities could be committed. The indifference suggests a lack of emotional response or investment in the conflict, which may have contributed to a delayed recognition of the dangers they were facing.

The irony in the situation is that the Sabbath is supposed to be a day of rest and peace, yet Eliezer's family is being forcibly deported from their home on this day. The Sabbath is traditionally a time for worship, reflection, and spending time with family, but instead, Eliezer and his family are being torn away from their community and forced into a situation of uncertainty and hardship. This contrast highlights the cruel and unjust nature of their deportation, as it goes against the principles and values typically associated with the Sabbath.

The hanging of the young pipel is the sight that makes Eliezer begin to lose his faith in God's existence. This event is particularly traumatizing for Eliezer as he witnesses the execution of a young boy who is still alive after the hanging. This horrific act challenges Eliezer's belief in a just and compassionate God, leading to his doubts and questioning of God's existence.

Once the German soldiers move into Sighet, all of the mentioned events happen. The soldiers are not polite to the Jews, but rather treat them with hostility and cruelty. Jewish leaders are arrested and taken away by the soldiers. Edicts are passed by the Germans, imposing restrictions and limiting the rights of Jews. Jewish ghettos are also formed, where Jews are forced to live in crowded and oppressive conditions. Therefore, all of the options listed in the question occur once the German soldiers arrive in Sighet.

Eliezer and his father tell lies about their ages and occupations during the selection at Birkenau. They claim to be farmers and state that they are eighteen and forty years old. These lies are likely told in an attempt to increase their chances of survival, as being younger and having a useful occupation may have been seen as more valuable by the Nazi authorities.
