Answer:

Pages 139-141 show the giver telling a painful story about a woman he loved and who was selected as a receiver of memories. Although the romance did not end happily, it gave the giver the memory of someone special and gave him more experience in helping his next friends, who would also be selected as recipients of memories.

Explanation:

"The giver" is a dystopia where young people are selected to keep the memories of humanity, especially the memories of pain and suffering, which the population does not want to have. Although this society seems to be utopian, it proves to be dystopian, since it removes the experiences of humanity, forcing them to live in sameness and causes suffering for the people who will keep these memories and carry the "weight" of the world on their backs.

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

an agreement.

Explanation:

The Mayflower compact was a document signed on a boat on the 11th of November, 1620 by forty-one (41) males of the one hundred and two (102) passengers on board while the boat was anchored in Provincetown Harbor (Cape Cod) due to the effect of turbulent storm. The document derived its name from the English ship known as Mayflower which was heading to Plymouth, Massachusetts due to storms and treacherous shoals rather than its original destination, which was the Colony of Virginia.

The Mayflower compact was a document which established a social contract and "rule of law" in order to make the pilgrims (saints) and non-pilgrims (strangers) remain loyal to King James 1, foster Christianity (Christian faith) and for the overall good of the colony.

Hence, the Saints and Strangers argued about how they would live in the New World. After much discussion, they came together and signed the Mayflower Compact.

Thus, the Compact was an agreement.

Kafkasque refers to what?
sineoko [7]
<span>Kafkasque is the expresion used to name the specific atmosphere in the works of Czech writer Franc Kafka. His novels and stories were so original and fresh, that literary critics and theoretics invented this new word, which is later used to describe the situations in fiction or even in reality which are similarly absurd, surreal and strange like those in Kafka's books. The main topics of his work were alienation, existential anxiety and guilt. His characters are isolated individuals dealing with bizare and surreal problems and absurd and incomprehensible social-bureaucratic powers. Kafkas most important works are: story "The Metamorphosis" and novels "The Trial" and "The Castle".</span>
