The elders in "The Giver" would most likely react negatively to the words "choice," "color," and "ordinary" as they strive to maintain control, uniformity, and sameness in their society. These words represent concepts that challenge their structured way of life and could disrupt the harmony they have established.
In "The Giver," members of the community do not have free choice in their jobs, spouses, or families. The elders assign roles and responsibilities based on skills and preferences, resulting in a lack of individual autonomy in these aspects of life.

In "The Giver," volunteer hours are assigned by the Committee of Elders as a way to give individuals a sense of purpose and contribution to the community. However, it is ironic because the assignments are not optional and do not allow for individual choice or agency, which contradicts the concept of volunteering.
