English

Evgen [1.6K]3 years ago

Answer:

He would experience real pain.

Explanation:

In the book, 'Giver', Jonas was selected to be the Receiver of Memory. It was explained by the Elder who conferred this position, that the receiver would experience deep and real pain which no other person in the community has experienced. The last Eleven chosen to be Receiver, was to have exceptional intelligence, courage and integrity. He must also have the ability to see beyond things. Jonas did not believe that he had this capacity, but the elders believed in him.

The rules also stated that the Receiver could not discuss his pains and dreams with others. He would be rude and tell lies. He would also forfeit his friendships.

Ten years ago, a girl named Rosemary was conferred as the receiver. She was given a painful memory which led to depression on her part. She requested to be released and the result was that she unleashed her pains on the community. This caused chaos. Because of this experience, Jonas could not request to be released.
