The correct answer is D) his explanations depict him as a bit defensive.

<em>The narration affects the narrator’s credibility in the excerpt because his explanations depicts him as a bit defensive. </em>

The statement refers to an excerpt of “Infinite Jest”. The narrator’s credibility is affected when he says “I cannot make myself understood. I am not just a jock, I said slowly. Distinctly. My transcript for the last year might have been dickied a bit, maybe, but that was to get me over a rough spot.” So he explanations depicts him a bit defensive, affecting his credibility by the way he is responding.

<em>“Infinite Jest</em>” is a novel written by David Foster Wallace in 1996.

I believe that the correct answer that affects the narrator's credibility in this excerpt is that his explanations depict him as a bit defensive.
He keeps explaining why he had a rough patch, but that he was always good prior to that.

Both Wiesel's All Rivers Run to the Sea and Spiegelman's Maus relate events of the Holocaust

Answer:

A) From a Jewish survivor's perspective.

Explanation:

In <em>All Rivers Run to the Sea</em>, Elie Wiesel tells us about his own experience under Nazis oppression and gruesome treatment of the Jews. He is a Jew, a writer and a survivor of the Holocaust, so in his work, we can <em>experience </em>the very essence of what was going there. Though his works made him famous, he said that those honors are a burden because he would rather like that his sister Tsiporah stayed alive, that Holocaust did not happen and book left unwritten.

Artie Spiegelman used his father Vladek`s vivid memories for writing <em>Maus. </em>He made hours and hours of interviews which included prewar, war and after war period.  Vladek with his first wife Anja were first sent into segregated neighborhoods (ghettos) and then going through several Nazi camps. They tried to escape several times, but always unsuccessfully. In that time they had a young son Richie who they sent to a different ghetto to be with his aunt, but after she found out about sending them to the camp, she pois oned her children, Richie and herself. After the war, Anja was deeply disturbed and she committed sui cide. Vladek continued his life, but haunted by terrible past.
