Question

In the book the giver Explain why jonas was bewildered about an apple last month. How did this incident lead to a humiliating moment for Jonas?

Answer 1

Answer:

The reason Jonas took the apple from the recreation area was because he wished to examine it further to understand why it changed in mid-air.

Explanation:

In chapter 3, Jonas recalls a time when he was publicly chastised for taking food from the recreation area. Although the speaker did not state Jonas's name, he realized that the announcement was specifically directed toward him. The reason Jonas removed the apple from the recreation area in the first place was because it seemed to change while he was throwing it to Asher. Jonas had randomly selected an apple from the snack basket and threw it at Asher. In the middle of playing catch, Jonas noticed that the apple was changing in mid-air. Jonas was not aware of it at the moment, but he has the Capacity to See Beyond, which essentially means that he has the ability to see in color. Similar to the Giver, who can hear music and melodies, Jonas can see in color, which is considered a unique ability in his highly structured community.
