Jonas discovered a word he didnt know by the feeling the giver gave him.
That is a very good question. The receiver before Jonas, the Giver, is very mysterious. However, we know that he helped Jonas and Gabriel escape to Elsewhere. I do not know the Giver's name. But we know that he is old because the title shows him as an old man.
The Giver transmits memories, some bad some good, to Jonas. He prepares him for his assignment which is, The Receiver. The receiver receives all the bad memories from the town so the town is not sad. "It is better for one to suffer than all to suffer", The Giver.
The giver is pleased with Jonas's reaction to his first memory, as Jonas demonstrates understanding and empathy for the person in the memory. The giver sees potential in Jonas to become a good Receiver of Memory.
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.
In "The Giver," Jonas's relationship with his father is loving but also distant. His father is emotionally detached due to the rules and expectations of their community, which causes tension in their relationship. Despite this, Jonas still cares for his father and tries to understand his actions.
An example of an inciting incident in "The Giver" is when Jonas is chosen to be the Receiver of Memory during the Ceremony of Twelve. This event sets the stage for the story by disrupting the normal order of the community and propelling Jonas into a new role that challenges his understanding of the world he lives in.
The verb in the sentence is "is," which is the linking verb connecting the subject "compassion" to the predicate "good for the giver and the receiver."
The first good memory that Jonas experiences in "The Giver" is when he sleds down a snowy hill and feels joy and exhilaration for the first time. This memory contrasts with his previous experiences of sameness and lack of emotion in the community.
Good receiver qualities in the giver include being attentive, open-minded, and empathetic. They should be able to listen actively, understand the message being given, and respond appropriately with respect and appreciation. Additionally, being able to provide feedback and demonstrate gratitude can enhance the giver-receiver dynamic.
The name 'Jonas' is a variation of the name 'Jonah' and in the Bible, Jonah was commissioned by the Lord to proclaim judgment on a sinful city. So, Lois Lowry may have chosen the name 'Jonas/Jonah' to show that Jonas was going to somehow bring his city out of its sheltered and sinful ways, and give them memories again, of the good and bad. An example of the way Jonas's city was sinful is when the smallest of the twins was killed.
Volunteer hours help decide what Jonas' assignment would be. The Elders would observe Jonas' volunteer hours to see what Jonas is good for.
The elders selected Jonas to be the Receiver of Memory, a highly important and respected role in their community. This assignment involved receiving all the memories of the past, both good and bad, that the community had chosen to forget. This job required Jonas to hold and understand the memories in order to advise the elders on important decisions.
