Jonas wanted to go visit his friend, Asher, and his friend Fiona on the unexpected holiday. He also wanted to spend time exploring the community and experiencing new things.
In his unexpected holiday, Jonas wanted to take the opportunity to explore new interests and experiences that he had previously set aside due to his busy schedule. He planned to spend time outdoors, engage in creative activities, and reconnect with friends and family. This break provided him with a chance to reflect and rejuvenate, allowing him to embrace spontaneity and enjoy life’s simple pleasures.
The Giver offered Jonas the memory of music, specifically of a beautiful concert performance. Jonas was deeply moved by the beauty of the memory and wanted to experience more of it. He felt a strong connection to the music and was eager to receive more memories from the Giver.
Jonas says he would not want to be the Receiver of Memory like the Giver because it comes with great burden and pain from bearing memories that others do not have to experience, as well as the isolation that comes with having knowledge that others do not.
Jonas reminds The Giver to put his hands on his back before the memory transfer so that The Giver can transfer the memory more effectively and efficiently. The physical touch helps both of them remain connected during the transfer, enhancing the experience for both.
The Giver is the one with all the memories in the book because he serves as the community's repository of historical knowledge and experiences. This role helps him guide the community's leaders and advise Jonas in his training.
Jonas wants the Giver to keep the memories of pain, suffering, and loneliness for himself. He believes that the Giver should not have to carry that burden alone and that he should experience the joy and love that the memories of a more colorful past bring.
Birth mothers don't have much status and are usually dumb
The Giver is About a Boy named Jonas who lives is a world that is perfect. He gets a job as a Receiver and learns about stuff that the community has gotten rid of. Jonas gets sick of this and runs away. If you want to know more, please read the book. It is a good book and my class has enjoyed reading it.
Jonas doesn't want to play the good guys bad guys game anymore because it involves pretend shooting each other which reminds him of the memory of war the Giver gave him.
mabye because they deliver you the food every day or mabye bacuse they dont feel pain
They haven't decided yet. They even decided if the film is actually going to be made haha. But if they do I think they should get Logan Lerman to play Jonas, he just seems like he would suit the part. Or maybe Colin Ford if they want someone that looks around the same age as Jonas. I also think Justin Bieber would do a good job.
Jonas chose not to go back to the Giver because he wanted to save Gabriel, the baby he had grown to care for. He believed the best chance for Gabriel's survival was for both of them to flee and search for a better future beyond the limits of the community.
