The Receiver had to transmit the memories he has within him, and all the memories from the past.
In Jonas's memory, the snow disappeared after he passed through the Giver's threshold. This represents how the memories were removed from the collective consciousness of society and kept only by the Giver and the Receiver.
He said he'd give him memories about snow, sleds and, runners
the memory of snow.
Rosemary, The Giver Daughter The Giver transmits the first memory to Rosemary, the first receiver who was his daughter. She asked to be released and she was killed, so they had no one to take the Giver's job and Jonas filled it. _____________________________________________ Answer 2: I don't think answer one is correct. I am pretty sure that the first memory the Giver gave Jonas was the memory of snow (the sled).
chap.11 With no words, just by touching Jonas's back lightly, the old man transmits the memory. Jonas actually feels the cold; then he can see snow, a sled, a hill and feel himself sledding downhill (foreshadowing here-remember that sled). When Jonas opens his eyes, the Receiver explains that the memory he has just given Jonas is a very distant memory, from before Climate Control, before the community went to Sameness. The Receiver then transmits memories of sunshine and sun- burn. Before Jonas leaves, the old man, who seems ter- ribly weary and sad, tells Jonas to call him The Giver.
The Receiver of memory; Jonas will take lessons with the "Giver", training him to become the future "Giver". What the receiver does is take memories of things like color, animals, snow and other things nonexistent in Jonas's world. He will become the most knowledgeable man in all of his world. He will be called for when the people are in a time of panic or when they do not no what to do.
In Chapter 8 of "The Giver," Jonas receives his first memory from the Giver. He experiences sledding down a hill in the snow and feels joy, excitement, and physical sensations for the first time. This memory opens Jonas's eyes to the importance of the past and the value of individual experiences.
The old Receiver felt a sense of relief and lightness after transmitting a memory to Jonas. It was a cathartic experience for him, as memories carry a heavy burden and sharing them with Jonas allowed for some emotional release.
The memory of sledding.
