Question

The Giver Book Writing Prompt:

Comment on this observation that Jonas makes (pages 97-98): “If everything’s the same, then there aren’t any choices!” Please write a strong paragraph using descriptive words.

Answer 1

On pages 97- 98 of The Giver Jonas made the remark of "If everything’s the same, then there aren’t any choices!" I feel that he is correct when he says this, what Jonas is saying is that if everything in the world is the same, then how are we to make any choices? Jonas is right when he makes this remark because if we have nothing different to chose from than we cant make any choices. An example is if you want to pick the color blue or red, you wouldn't be able to in his world, because everything in the same.

Answer 2

In The Giver, written by Lois Lowry, Jonas who is the main character claims that "If everything's the same, then there aren't any choices!" He states this on pages 97-98 and I personally strongly agree with him. If everything is the same, every day would be extremely similar. So if you would want to keep everything the same, that would mean making little to no choices during the day. And that seems like quite a horrible situation to be stuck in for your whole life.

(Hope this is good!)
