Read the excerpt below from the novel It by Stephen King and answer the question that follows. Richie had felt a mad, exhilarati

ng kind of energy growing in the room. . . . He thought he recognized the feeling from his childhood, when he felt it every day and had come to take it merely as a matter of course. He supposed that, if he had ever thought about that deep-running aquifer of energy as a kid (he could not recall that he ever had), he would have simply dismissed it as a fact of life, something that would always be there, like the color of his eyes . . . . Well, that hadn't turned out to be true. The energy you drew on so extravagantly when you were a kid, the energy you thought would never exhaust itself—that slipped away somewhere between eighteen and twenty-four, to be replaced by something much duller . . . purpose, maybe, or goals . . . .

In a paragraph, explain Jonas's reaction to all of the new information
jeka94

Answer:

This question refers to The Giver by Lois Lowry.

Explanation:

  Jonas' first reaction is to want to have more memories despite the fact that all this is new to him and many things he does not understand. He is excited and wants to know everything. He wants to tell everything to other people even though he knows he can't.

However, all these memories that he is receiving make him change his way of seeing the community. He does not understand why people have been forbidden all these things and his way of thinking changes even more when he sees how his father takes the life of a baby.
