Answer:

b. Jonas gives Gabriel a soothing memory to help him sleep.

Explanation:

In chapter 14 of Lowry's The Giver, Jonas gets up in the middle of the night to check on a whimpering baby Gabe, who has been staying in his room. Jonas touches Gabe to soothe him and daydreams about a calming memory of a sailboat on beautiful blue water. Unwittingly, Jonas passes that memory onto Gabe who quiets down in response. At first, Jonas isn't quite sure if the memory transferred and if it was the reason Gabe quieted down. However, Jonas has another opportunity to verify whether he can send soothing memories to Gabe during the early morning hours when the baby wakes again. The entire memory of the sailboat didn't transfer the first time Jonas touched Gabe, though. In an effort to discover if he has the ability to transfer memories to Gabe, which in turn will soothe the baby, the following is described:

Again Jonas went to him. This time he quite deliberately placed his hand firmly on Gabriel's back, and released the rest of the calming day on the lake. Again Gabriel slept (147).

As a result of this experiment, Jonas learns that he has the ability to deliver a memory to Gabe, then Gabe is able to receive the memory, and the result is a calming effect on the baby.

What does this excerpt reveal about Nick? He is not particularly impressed by material wealth and fashionable appearances. He pl
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

He is wealthy enough to live in West Egg but not wealthy enough to rent a very nice place.

Explanation:

F. Scott Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatsby," tells the story of Jay Gatsby and his unfulfilled dreams of trying to win back his former love which is the main and only purpose of his life. The story also deals with the theme of an American dream, the various obstacles that one encounters in life, and the evident social status that one maintains or tries to maintain to be "agreeable" for others.

In the given excerpt from the text, Nick, our narrator, describes his home. He agrees that his house at West Egg <em>"is an eyesore but it was a small eyesore"</em>. This seems to suggest that it was an eyesore for those living in East Egg but not that much as compared to the other houses in West Egg. This shows that <u>he is wealthy enough to live in a much better house than the others but at the same time, not wealthy enough to be able to reside in the "upper-class" East Egg side. </u>

How would you describe love? <br> It is like an interview so I need different opinions.
dedylja [7]

Answer:

I view love as an act that you don't do for yourself but for the person the love is directed towards. I have alway believed true love was doing what was best for the other person weather that means what you would be doing would not be something you would want to do ever again. I view love as an international concept. Love can be shown in many different ways. Being strict about rules and other important things can also be "love" because you are doing what best and keeping the person the love is directed to safe.
