The Giver Novel : How has Jonas's perspective in chapter 13 change throughout the novel so far.

English
1 answer:
nadezda [96]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

- "As the weeks go by, Jonas learns all the colors, but still sees only glimpses of them in the world around him".

- "Jonas is angry that the world is devoid of color; it's not fair, he says".

- "The Giver asks him to explain. Jonas argues that without color, there aren't choices. He can't decide in the morning whether he wants to wear blue or red. He knows what color your shirt is isn't really important, but he thinks the ability to choose at all is what matters—on principle".

- "Jonas elaborates by discussing Gabriel, whom The Giver already knows about. What if Gabriel could choose which color toy he wanted?"

- "The Giver explains that, if that were the case, then Gabriel might make the wrong choices".

- "Jonas realizes the wisdom. He agrees that people shouldn't be allowed to choose their own spouses or jobs, because they might be wrong. "We really have to protect people," he says, "from wrong choices," because that way "it's safer."

- "Well, that was quick. So much for Jonas the freedom-lover.".

- "Still, though, Jonas doesn't quite feel satisfied with his own conclusion. He feels frustrated".

- "Actually, he feels angry. All the time. He's angry at his friends, for example, for being satisfied with their lives, which are so dull and not vibrant".

Maybe the first five ^-^

Alex_Xolod [135]
Puritans as a political entity largely disappeared, but Puritan attitudes and ethics continued to exert an influence on American society. They made a virtue of qualities that made for economic success—self-reliance, frugality, industry, and energy—and through them influenced modern social and economic life.

Which sentence best describes the impact of ending a story this way
jeka57 [31]

I want to say the answer is A

My explanation:

I don't think it is B because the author mentions how he still hears the dragon in the wind so the knight keeps his sword sharp because he never knows if the dragon will show up again.

I don't think it is C because it suggests he is certain of a peaceful life. Although like mentioned before he keeps his sword sharpened for the thought of a dragon attacking so i think the peaceful life is not certain forever.

Finally I think the answer is not D because it does not portray in the story of the knight being a hero.

Therefor I believe A is left as the best option.

I hope this helps, have an amazing day :)

lisabon 2012 [21]
Students who comprehend the most from their reading are those who when a lot about words. Students know about word prefixes, suffixes, word roots, and multiple meanings of words. Knowledge expands their vocabulary which helps when they encounter new words during reading.
