Explanation:

Question 8 (assuming the first question is 8)

Wiesel's detailed pacing in the pipel's execution scene in "Night" is meant to immerse readers in the horror and injustice. Option a says it forces readers to experience the unbearable injustice, which matches the intent of detailed pacing to make readers feel the event's cruelty. Option b is wrong as detailed pacing would not distance readers. Option c is wrong as there's no justice served here. Option d is wrong as the perspective is of the victims, not SS officers.

In the execution scene, others in the camp have become desensitized (viewing it as routine), but Elie's faith is shaken (feels his faith die). Option a is wrong as justice isn't a focus. Option c is wrong as others aren't rebellious and Elie isn't indifferent. Option d is wrong as he doesn't see it as justified. Option b matches the differing perspectives.

The hanging of the pipel in "Night" shows Elie's struggle with faith in the face of suffering. Option a: resilience isn't the main theme here. Option c: there's no collective resistance. Option d: justice doesn't triumph here. Option b, the conflict between faith and suffering, is developed as Elie questions his faith during this event.

Answer:

a. It forces readers to experience the unbearable injustice of the event.
