Yes, option C is correct. Elie Wiesel's father wanted to give his son his knife and spoon because he believed he was going to die. It was a gesture of passing on his belongings to his son before his impending death in the concentration camp.
No, the correct answer is A. Wiesel's father wanted to give his son his knife and spoon because they were valuable and could be traded for food in the concentration camp. In such harsh conditions where food was scarce, having these utensils would have given Wiesel a better chance of survival. This is an important detail from the book "Night" by Elie Wiesel, which recounts their experiences during the Holocaust.
