Read this excerpt from "Hope, Despair, and Memory" by Elie Wiesel and answer the question. Of course we could try to forget the past. Why not? Is it not nature for a human being to repress what causes him pain, what causes him shame? Like the body, memory protects its wounds. When day breaks after a sleepless night, one's ghosts must withdraw; the dead are ordered back to their graves. But for the first time in history, we could not bury our dead. We bear their graves within ourselves. For us, forgetting was never an option. Deducing from context clues, what is the best statement of Wiesel's purpose in writing We bear their graves within ourselves? (A) to entertain through alliteration of "graves" and "ourselves" (B) to educate about the Holocaust (C) to establish connection with his readers (D) to enlighten with comparison of their souls with graves as the resting place for Holocaust victims

The best statement of Wiesel's purpose in writing "WE bear their graves within ourselves" is:

D. To enlighten with comparison of their souls with graves as the resting place for Holocaust victims.

Explanation:

Elie Wiesel (1928 - 2016) was an American author originally born in Romania. Wiesel was a survivor of the Holocaust, when Jews were arrested and killed by German Nazis during World War II.

"Hope, Despair, and Memory" was an address given by Wiesel when he received the Nobel Prize. He speaks of his soul and the soul of other survivors as if they were graves in which the ones who were murdered are buried. His intention by comparing souls to graves is to emphasize that the survivors will never be able to forget what happened, that they will always carry, figuratively speaking, those who died within them. The atrocity and injustice were too great to be forgotten.
