Read this excerpt from "Hope, Despair, and Memory" by Elie Wiesel and answer the question. The survivors wanted to communicate everything to the living: the victim’s solitude and sorrow, the tears of mothers driven to madness, the prayers of the doomed beneath a fiery sky. They needed to tell of the child who, in hiding with his mother, asked softly, very softly, "Can I cry now?" They needed to tell of the sick beggar who, in a sealed cattle-car, began to sing as an offering to his companions. And of the little girl who, hugging her grandmother, whispered: "Don’t be afraid, don’t be sorry to die … I’m not." Which of the following correctly pair(s) a detail with its sense? Select all that apply. "Can I cry now?" = hearing "solitude and sorrow" = sight "sealed cattle-car" = smell "hugging her grandmother" = touch

Answer :

Answer:

The pair that correctly links a detail with its sense is "hugging her grandmother" = touch and "Can I cry now?" = hearing

Explanation:

The five senses of the human body are as follows:

  • sight
  • hearing
  • touch
  • smell
  • taste

The first and last options are the only correctly paired detail with its senses because they accurately convey the senses in the body through the details.
