Read the excerpt from Wiesel’s All Rivers Run to the Sea. My very last resistance broken, I let myself be pulled, pushed, and kicked, like a deaf and mute sleepwalker. I could see everything, grasp it and register it, but only later would I try to put in order all the sensations and all the memories. How stunned I was, for example, to discover another time outside time, a universe parallel to this one, a creation within Creation, with its own laws, customs structures, and language. Which theme is addressed in both excerpts?
A) Ignorance of reality is preferable to awareness.
B) Memories can be just as painful as the event itself.
C) People can be worn down to the point of giving up.
D) Reality can be inexplicably cruel and unfair.
