Question

read the excerpt from chapter 7 of night. our minds numb with indifference. here or elsewhere, what did it matter? die today or tomorrow, or later? the night was growing longer, never - ending. what does the sentence \the night was growing longer, never - ending\ suggest about the authors viewpoint? ○ he no longer cares about what happens to him. ○ he believes that life in general is too hard to endure ○ he feels like the horrors he is experiencing will last forever. ○ he believes that bad things happen only at night.

Explanation:

• Analyze Option 1: The excerpt shows indifference but the sentence about the night focuses on the duration of horrors, not caring about self. Eliminate.
• Analyze Option 2: The sentence is about the current horrors (night) seeming never - ending, not a general view of life. Eliminate.
• Analyze Option 3: "The night was growing longer, never - ending" implies the author feels the horrors (represented by the night) will last forever. This matches the meaning of the sentence.
• Analyze Option 4: The text doesn't suggest bad things only happen at night. Eliminate.

Answer:

C. He feels like the horrors he is experiencing will last forever.
