Question 5 • GA-English Language Arts 8

In The Diary of Anne Frank, which conflict supports the theme that wartime often brings out the worst in people?

Answer
A
Mr. Dussel’s unkind comments to Mrs. Van Daan
B
Miep’s lack of sympathy for Peter’s missing cat
C
Anne’s disrespect toward her mother and father
D
Peter’s defense of his mother regarding the fur coat

Explanation

Mr. Dussel’s unkind comments to Mrs. Van Daan show how the fear and strain of wartime can lead people to treat one another harshly. This conflict best supports the theme that war often brings out the worst in people. Peter’s defense of his mother, by contrast, shows loyalty rather than cruelty.
