Jonas reacts with shock and pain when the Giver gives him the memory of breaking a leg in sledding. He experiences the physical pain and fear associated with the memory, as it is a new and intense sensation for him. This memory helps him understand the concept of pain and injury more deeply.
Jonas' first unpleasant memory was of sliding down a hill on a sled and breaking his leg, feeling the intense pain and helplessness associated with the injury.
The memory that the Giver released to Jonas with smoke and cannons was a war memory. In this memory, Jonas experienced the chaotic and destructive nature of war for the first time, which left a deep impact on him. Through this memory, Jonas gained a better understanding of conflict and its consequences.
Jonas's first disturbing memory is of seeing a release ceremony in which a newborn twin is released from the community due to its inability to thrive. This memory horrifies Jonas and foreshadows the darker aspects of his society.
Jonas's first experience of grief was when he witnessed the release of the newborn twin who "didn't make it." This memory upset him deeply and made him question the nature of release.
Jonas experiences a broken leg when he temporarily takes on a memory of sledding down a hill in the snow. The sensation of falling and breaking his leg causes him intense physical pain.
There was a memory of warfare, with a dying boy, people sobbing and screaming in pain, and injured horse.
The new child's death reminded Jonas of the memory of seeing his own father release a newchild by euthanizing it with an injection. This memory led Jonas to question the values and ethics of his community's practices.
Jonas received the sunshine memory from The Giver through the process of "transferring." The Giver transmitted the memory to Jonas by placing his hands on Jonas's bare back. Jonas then experienced the memory as if it were his own.
Jonas is not permitted to apply for release because he has been selected to be the Receiver of Memory, a highly respected and crucial role in their community. This means he must stay and fulfill the duties of the Receiver rather than being released like others who have reached a certain age.
When The Giver transmits a memory to Jonas, he transfers the memory by placing his hands on Jonas's back, and the memory enters Jonas's mind through a shared consciousness. Jonas then experiences the memory as if he were the one who originally had the experience.
