In the last past week
reading this book, this book have many intriguing scenes that make me read
more. In the first chapter it talk about how the life is in this community,. It
said how important December was for the kids who are going to have twelve. An
Intriguing part of the first chapter is at the beginning of the book when some
pilots arrive and send everyone home, that part have some suspechus part. In
general this chapter was very interesting and important because it explain how
it was in that community. In the second paragraph it talk about how father is
with baby Gabriel and it also talk about when his sister Lily went to the
ceremony of nine . In the third paragraph Jonas see something strange with an apple
that he can describe and it talk specially talk about baby Gabriel and when
they deliver baby Gabriel at his house. Intriguing part of this chapter is was baby
Gabriel’s eyes, only one person has her eyes and it is Jonas, Only Gabriel and
Jonas have the same type of eyes color blue. On the fourth paragraph it narrate
when Jonas goes to the House of olds. He went to the House of Olds with Asher and
Fiona. In the House of Olds they wash the old people with the purpose of assigning
a job to Jonas and the rest. In the fifth paragraph it talk about Jonas stirrings
and his dream with Fiona, in that dream he imagine him and Fiona at the House
of Old washing Fiona’s body. Then Jonas tell his dream to his mom and she said
that it is normal and his gave him some pills to stop having those dreams.
In this book there is something that is confusing me about all this book. What make me confuse is his jobs and his rules. What make me confuse of the rules is Why do they want a perfect world? If they want a perfect world why do they release important people that benefited the community like Roberto, he was a very important person in the community and they release him. Another thing that makes me confuse is to who this rules benefit and why people cant choose their job. It they want a perfect life they need to let choose people, to let mpeople choose their own way, why do they want a perfect world if they don’t let people be free, With so many rules they make unfree the people.
This book make me think about the people’s way to live. After reading this book it makes me connect with so many thing like The Truman Show, Divergent, Hunger Games and so many other movies. All this movie have in common with the no freedom of the people like choosing their job and make things people don’t want. My best example is Divergent because and that movie people is divided in social classes that connect with the part when Lily’s mother said that the job affect your reputation. And this movie also people have a ceremony of when they are going to choose their job. This is a very interesting book I am reading. I am very happy reading this book
Camilo, I find your report very interesting. I like all the connections you made with the movie the Truman show yet is important to make connections with it because the essay will be about it. I also have my doubts, like when you said that the book connects with the movie the hunger games. From my point of view, The Hunger Games can connect with The Giver because of the government but it doesn’t start as a perfect-pretty world. How did you connected it? Also, for a better understanding of your readers make sure you spell right some words and capitalize what needs to be capitalized.
