Passage picker week 4

By Tayler

My first passage,

This shows how much the Giver wanted to stay in the community and how much he would have not wanted to transfer any bad memory's to Rosemary it also showed why he had so much emotion with her. From page #162.

My second passage,

"He called back and hoped that with his capacity for hearing-beyond, the Giver would know that Jonas had said goodbye". This is when Jonas what leaving the community before the next ceremony this helps me realize how much Jonas cared for the the Giver and why it was so difficult to leave the community even though if he had stayed he would have been torcher for him. Quote from page #164.

My third passage,

"Plane, plane" this is what Gabe would say when he heard a plane this shows how frightening it would have been to Gabe and Jonas when they were biking it the night and it helps me understand why Jonas was always on the look out for hiding places. Quote from page #169

My fourth passage,

I chose this for my last passage because I thought that it had a lot of emotions and suspense in it and it was a good way to end the book by leaving questions for you to think about after because it doesn't just ends and you don't  just close the book it makes you wish there was more to the ending of the book. From bottom line of page #179-180.

 Jonas is curious to know about release and one afternoon he asks the giver about it. He ends up wanting to see the release of the other  lighter twin and to his surprise the giver tells him they are all recorded. Jonas witnesses his dad talking in a fake kind voice with no meaning injecting the little boy in the face with a needle possibly full of poison. Jonas is so shocked that he say I won't go home you can't make me go home. the giver tells him he can sleep in the annex room that night they plan to make things different and have people make memories. They plan to have jonas leave with all thes (most of) memorie the giver tells him he does not have to go because he can't even see colors anymore they cannot use him. He saves the leftovers from dinner, that night at dinner the family tells its lies about the day, "their feelings" and his dad says that they are going to release gabriel. so that night he leaves on dads bike taking gabriel and some scraps of food. he leaves running out of civilisation using the memory of cold to hide from the colorblind heat detecting search planes. That later stop coming he experiences nature snow and starvation. He finds the hill he first went sledding on running out of good memories e gets to the top almost dead and slides down on the other side to see a house with a tree in it with candles and decoration. He finally finds what he is looking for. either that or he is unconscious when he fell and is in his dreams. me no like ending D:

In the Giver Jonas had to make a decision and that was whether he stays in the community or not.He has to make this choice because he is unsure if he wants to live a bland life in the community or runaway.Jonas decided to take Gabe because he saw what happened at the releases and his father said that ''gabriel was to be released'' and Jonas didn't want that to happen.

He choose to leave the community and bring gabriel with him but soon into their journey 

they run out of food and begin to experience snow and starvation.But at the end they found the hill that jonas had gone sledding on and he could see the homes and he could hear the people singing and he knew that they were safe and could be happy.
