Night Questions, Chapter 1
1. Elie, his family, and the Jewish people
of his village refuse to give up hope that
everything will turn out. They either ignore
warning signs or try to make the best of
things as events unfold. What are THREE
examples of this?
2. Elie and his family have a few
opportunities when they could have avoided
their fate (the concentration camps). Give
two examples of this. (Do not use events
you already described in #1.)
3. To what extent do you agree with this
statement? Explain.
I can’t understand why Elie and his family
didn’t flee, and I have no sympathy for them
because they could have escaped.
