They were arrested in 1944 and sent to separate Nazi concentration <br />camps. Anne Frank finally died of typhus(斑疹伤寒) in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp <br />shortly (about two weeks) before liberation by British troops in April 1945. Of the group of eight, <br />only Otto Frank, Anne&#039;s father, survived the war. After the war, he got back the diary that was <br />saved and kept by his friend. <br />When Otto Frank read his daughter&#039;s diary, he was astonished. &quot;I never knew my little Anne <br />was so deep&quot;. Anne Frank&#039;s story has become an example of Jewish suffering under Adolf Hitler, <br />and a warning of the consequences of racism and persecution(迫害). <br />There has been guess about the identity of Kitty, who in Anne&#039;s revised diary is the only <br />receiver of her letters. It was once thought that the name referred to Kitty Egyedi, a prewar <br />friend of Frank&#039;s. However, Kitty Egyedi said in an interview that she was flattered by the <br />assumption but doubted the diary was addressed to her: &ldquo;Kitty became so idealized and started <br />to lead her own life in the diary. The name ... is not meant to be me.&rdquo; <br />The character&#039;s fictional(虚构旳) origin was proved undoubtedly later. Anne had expressed <br />the desire in the introduction of her diary for one person that she could call her truest friend, <br />that is, a person to whom she could confide her deepest thoughts and feelings. She observed <br />that she had many &quot;friends&quot;, but (by her own definition) no true, dear friend with whom she <br />could share her innermost thoughts. In fact, the closest friend Anne had during her tragically <br />short life was her diary, &quot;Kitty&quot;, for it was only to &quot;Kitty&quot; that she entrusted her innermost <br />thoughts. <br />1.
