Remembering and Reflecting on the Holocaust

Question 14 • Common Core ELA 11 - ELA3011 IC

Which statement explains why Elie Wiesel most likely wrote All Rivers Run to the Sea as a memoir?

Answer
A
to reveal the traumatic impact the Holocaust had on his life
B
to persuade world leaders to take action against oppression
C
to provide a historical account of Poland during World War II
D
to convince other Holocaust survivors to share their stories

Explanation

A memoir recounts the author’s own experiences and reflections. Elie Wiesel wrote about his life, including the lasting trauma caused by the Holocaust, so the best choice is “to reveal the traumatic impact the Holocaust had on his life.” The book may also offer historical context, but its purpose as a memoir centers on Wiesel’s personal experience rather than a general history of Poland.
