Excerpt from night by elie wiesel
after the march, we were given permission to return to the blocks for our meal.
i remember that i found the soup excellent that evening . .
which statement best describes the effect of wiesel’s choice to describe the soup in the excerpt?
it shows that eliezer did not respect the hanged man and has already forgotten about him.
it shows that eliezer has become so numb to death that he can enjoy food after looking at a hanged man.
it shows that eliezer has matured, as he refused to eat the soup his first evening in the concentration camp.
it shows that eliezer receives the same soup each evening, which emphasizes the monotony of life in the concentration camps.
