Answer:

Explanation:

The theme of the story is that we should not blame others for our lives and choices, especially considering it might turn out we would do the same in their shoes.

Iyapo was blaming his fate on Adam, but once he was given the opportunity for a good life without the survival struggle he also fell under the temptation of curiosity. Just like Adam ate forbidden fruit and lost a chance to stay in the Garden of Eden, Iyapo opened the door King told him not to and lost the chance to stay in the palace as his brother.

It was his own choice and he knew it is forbidden, even though before he blamed Adam for a similar situation.

The story, therefore, talks about how we each make our own choices and that we should answer ourselves for them.

Answer:

Who is Rosemary and why is she important?

How does the story end? Do Jonas and Gabriel die? Do they make it to a place called “Elsewhere”?

Revisit your Cornell Notes on utopias and dystopias. Is Jonas’s community more of a utopia or a dystopia? Please provide at least two reasons for your choices with examples from the story and article.

Explanation

Rosemary is the Receiver of Memory who was released and failed.

Jonas and Gabe do not die and they make it to Elsewhere.

It is a dystopia because they "release" anyone who is different and keep important memories from the people.

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

A. the time, place, and conditions in which a story occurs

Explanation:

The purpose of setting in literature is to act as an exposition.

When we read a scary story, and the character starts to describe the circumstances of his physical surroundings, he is describing his setting.

Example: It was midnight when I pulled into the driveway of my house. The lamposts along my street blinked eerily as I made my way to the front door. Something didn't feel right.

Choice B describes mood.

Choice C describes plot.

Choice D describes characterization.
