In the book, she experiences visions and premonitions of the horrors that the Jews will face, such as the burning of bodies and the loss of their homes. Her cries and warnings are dismissed by others, but her foreshadowing proves to be accurate as the Jews later face the atrocities of the Holocaust. Her character serves as a symbol of the prophetic nature of foreshadowing in the story.

    • Train loaded onto cattle box cars

    Correct Answer
    A. Train loaded onto cattle box cars
    Explanation
    During the transportation of the Sighet Jews, they were loaded onto cattle box cars. This suggests that they were treated as livestock rather than human beings, as cattle box cars are typically used for transporting animals. This dehumanizing treatment further emphasizes the inhumane conditions and disregard for the lives of the Jews during this period.
