Read the excerpt below and answer the question. i do not recollect of ever seeing my mother by the light of day. she was with me in the night. she would lie down with me, and get me to sleep, but long before i waked she was gone. very little communication ever took place between us. death soon ended what little we could have while she lived, and with it her hardships and suffering. she died when i was about seven years old, on one of my master’s farms, near lee’s mill. i was not allowed to be present during her illness, at her death, or burial. she was gone long before i knew anything about it. never having enjoyed, to any considerable extent, her soothing presence, her tender and watchful care, i received the tidings of her death with much the same emotions i should have probably felt at the death of a stranger. which best describes the tone of this excerpt?

Read the excerpt from elie wiesel’s all rivers run to the sea. why were those trains allowed to roll unhindered into poland? why were the tracks leading to birkenau never bombed? i have put these questions to american presidents and generals and to high-ranking soviet officers. since moscow and washington knew what the killers were doing in the death camps, why was nothing done at least to slow down their “production”? that not a single allied military aircraft ever tried to destroy the rail lines converging on auschwitz remains an outrageous enigma to me. birkenau was “processing” ten thousand jews a day. stopping a single convoy for a single night—or even for just a few hours—would have prolonged so many lives. based on the paragraph, the author would most likely agree that it is best to avoid confrontation at all costs. people need to be proactive when they witness an injustice. countries should remain neutral to keep alliances strong. moscow and washington are to be blamed for the holocaust.
