Answer:
He would experience real pain.
Explanation:
In the book, 'Giver', Jonas was selected to be the Receiver of Memory. It was explained by the Elder who conferred this position, that the receiver would experience deep and real pain which no other person in the community has experienced. The last Eleven chosen to be Receiver, was to have exceptional intelligence, courage and integrity. He must also have the ability to see beyond things. Jonas did not believe that he had this capacity, but the elders believed in him.
The rules also stated that the Receiver could not discuss his pains and dreams with others. He would be rude and tell lies. He would also forfeit his friendships.
Ten years ago, a girl named Rosemary was conferred as the receiver. She was given a painful memory which led to depression on her part. She requested to be released and the result was that she unleashed her pains on the community. This caused chaos. Because of this experience, Jonas could not request to be released.
Answer:
Explanation:
he theme of a story is what the author is trying to convey — in other words, the central idea of the story. Short stories often have just one theme, whereas novels usually have multiple themes. The theme of a story is woven all the way through the story, and the characters' actions, interactions, and motivations all reflect the story's theme.
But don't confuse theme with the story's plot or moral. The plot is simply what happens in the story and the order of the story's events, and the moral is the lesson that the writer wants the main character (and by extension, you) to learn from the story. Each of these serves the overall theme of the story. That is, the events of the story illustrate the theme, and the lesson that you learn relates directly to the theme.
So when you're trying to recognize the theme of a story, ask yourself what the author is trying to convey through the characters and events of the story. For instance, in The Catcher in the Rye, Holden Caulfield's actions are motivated by his not wanting to grow up, so one of the main themes of this novel is the preservation of innocence.
