Why do you think people in Jonas' community call eyes "light" and "dark"? How is this different from our society?​

Answer:

In Jonas’s community, most people do not question the way things are.  Things just are as they are, and people accept that they have always been that way.  Jonas is a little different.  He has light colored eyes, which are also directly related to the other way he is different: Jonas has the Capacity to See Beyond.  For this reason, he is chosen as the Receiver of Memory.

Almost every citizen in the community had dark eyes. His parents did, and Lily did, and so did all of his group members and friends.  But there were a few exceptions: Jonas himself, and a female Five who he had noticed had the different, lighter eyes. (Ch. 3)  

During his Ceremony of Twelve, the Chief Elder explains why Jonas is different.  She does not mention that he has light-colored eyes, which are very rare in his community and give him a deep and thoughtful look.  She does mention that he has several special traits that make him perfect to be the next Receiver of Memory.

Write a sentence using correct parallel structure.
Marat540 [252]

Parallel structure should be used when you connect clauses with a coordinating conjunction such as: for, and, nor, or, but, so, or yet. Some examples of this include: Correct: Every morning, we make our bed, eat breakfast and feed the dog. Incorrect: Every morning, we make our bed, eating breakfast and feed the dog.

Blizzard [7]
It is C, how you feel when someone disagrees with you. 
The most important would be A, considering the example that if you are a girl wearing shorts to a Middle Eastern country, many would find that offensive, since most religions do not let them show skin in public.
