Answer:

“It was as though madness had infected all of us.”

Explanation:

A mad person cannot be held responsible for his or her actions, so by saying that 'madness had infected' all of them, the author is trying to justify their binding and gagging Mrs. Schachter because the situation was really intolearble for all of the prisoners.  

"Our terror could no longer be contained. Our nerves had reached a breaking point. Our very skin was aching. It was as though madness had infected all of us. We gave up."

Your uncle and aunt own a shop which is busy and successful. You sometimes help in the shop during
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

my summer experience working at my aunt and uncle's shop during the summer holidays. I didn't think much of it until I started working.

At first, it was just to help them out however I can and then look for a summer job for the holidays. But once I saw how the business was dealt with and the many elements of being a business owner, I was intrigued and decided that this shop would be my summertime job.

My aunt and uncle owned a supermarket, with all things available, from vegetables to toys to stationaries to other food items. And they are successful, with their shop being the only supermarket available around their neighborhood.

So, once I started working there, helping them out, I decided that it is best to learn about business and the inner workings from the ones I trust too. My uncle explained every part of the business, while my aunt helped me understand the importance of customer service. And through them, I learned a lot about the many aspects of running a business. It also gave me a new, fresh view of what business implies, and now, I have a deeper interest in the school's curriculum. I am even thinking of pursuing business courses once in college.

So, you see, the summer job wasn't just a part-time, temporary job for me. It was also a business class, an internship, and a real-time experience about entrepreneurship and owning one's own business. This summer wasn't so bad after all.
