Answer:

Explanation:

Title of short story or novel The Giver

Author Lois Lowry

1. Describe the setting of your novel or short story. The setting of The Giver is in a futuristic world where all emotions and feelings are not allowed. Everyone who lives in this world are all the same and consist of 2 parents and 2 kids.    

Provide a quotation from the text to support your answer. “Memories are not just about the past. They determine our future. You can change things. You can make things better.”

2. Describe the protagonist of your novel or short story. The protagonist of The Giver is Jonas this is because he is the main character that we follow around as we read that he gets chosen as the giver, can see color, and so on.  

Provide a quotation from the text to support your answer. ''back in the time of the memories, everything had a shape and size, the way things still do, but they also had a quality called color. ''

3. Discuss the main conflict in your novel or short story. If the conflict is not perfectly clear yet, what do you suspect it will be? Explain who is trying to do what. Right now, I think the main conflict is that Jonas got assigned The Giver role this causes many people to think of him differently and for him to think of himself in a different way.  

Which of the four major types of conflict best describes the situation you discussed? Our people made that choice, the choice to go to Sameness. Before my time, before the previous time, back and back and back. We relinquished color when we relinquished sunshine and did away with difference. We gained control of many things.

4. Provide at least two examples of dialogue in your novel or short story that support the type of conflict you have identified. Jonas and The Giver talk about their personal memories and how Jonas feared the bad memories.  

Another example of dialogue is Jonas not wanting to have any memories and for them to stop coming.  

Explain how each example of dialogue supports the conflict. “it's really important to have our memories, Jonas. We can learn from them, either if bad or good!”, The Giver said “What do you mean, I do not understand. I am scare when I remember bad memories! Sometimes I even got nightmares!”, Jonas replied.  

“The worst part of holding the memories is not the pain. It is the loneliness of it. Memories need to be shared.” The Giver said

5. Describe two examples of rising action events in your novel or short story. Jonas was worried about what his assignment would end up being and if he were going to get a good assignment.  Jonas becomes a new Receiver; he receives new and different memories that change the way he thinks about himself and his community forever.  

Provide a quotation from the text to support your answers. But there was a little shudder of nervousness when he thought about it, about what might happen.

Answer:

Explanation:the setting is not disclosed in the giver but it takes place in the future without a past

a quotation from the text would be anything that mentions the past, since the future is hardly referenced.

jonah is the protagonist in the giver, however it says in your protagonist is delaney, who is struggling to raise her little sisters.

quote “Although she was just 16 years old, Delaney had spent much of them providing for her sisters. She displayed the toughness—and weariness—of someone twice her age” (page 16).

the main conflict is a world without light or past.

the giver seems to be a story written by you, as you will answer the questions.

why is it hard for parents to understand their kids so like my mom thought i was being disrespectful for pointing out my view
kati45 [8]
Parents at times feel like all they want to do is ruin your life. there just trying to help you. what your doing is not pointing you view it is talking back. just have a talk with your mom tell sorry and ask her next time calmly if she can see your point of view and if says no then be mature about it and say ok. she is your mo for all you care. hoped i helped.

Alenkasestr [34]

In his “Inaugural Address,” John F. Kennedy claims that the only way the American nation will be able to preserve its democratic freedom is by working together and remaining united regardless of any personal differences.  

~To that world assembly of sovereign states, the United Nations, our last best hope in an age where the instruments of war have far outpaced the instruments of peace, we renew our pledge of support--to prevent it from becoming merely a forum for invective--to strengthen its shield of the new and the weak--and to enlarge the area in which its writ may run.
