Read the excerpt from Elie Wiesel’s All Rivers Run to the Sea. It is unbelievable how fast people adapt. It hurts to admit it, but within hours of first breathing the cattle car’s nauseating air, we began to feel at home. ‘Home’ was the edge of the wooden plank I sat on as I dreamed of the Jewish exiles of antiquity and the Middle Ages. More curious than afraid, I thought of myself as their brother. Mixed into my sadness there was undeniable excitement, for we were living a historic event, a historic adventure. Which best describes the author at this point in his life? He comprehends the situation but is trying to remain optimistic. He reveals the torment he feels while riding the train to the unknown. He is too young and naive to truly understand what is happening. He is troubled by how quickly the others have accepted the current condition.

C

The author is describing a specific moment of moving to the unknown. The narrative perspective is telling readers about the flow of narratives thoughts.

He dreamed about Jewish exiles and Middle Ages. These are childhood memories. In his memories, it is shown how they lived with the horror of Auschwitz and Buchenwald and spiritual struggle. Also, he thought about adapting like a process who is different for everyone. In this situation, people adapt fast, and for him this is surprising.

Even though he was not in a good position, he was optimistic. The last sentence from the excerpt shows the readers how is he explaining his position. "Mixed into my sadness there was undeniable excitement, for we were living a historic event, a historic adventure". He saw his position as a historic moment and thought about it as a historic adventure.
