ReplyDelete1. The assignment that jonas' got was Receiver of Memory. This a very rare assignment that only one person got it ten years ago but she failed. The elders trust Jonas' that he could be exilent at this assignment. This job means you suppose to have intelligence,intergrity,courage,and wisdom. Its a job thats need to be trained in solo pravite from others. If I was Jonas I take this job because its very rare job they give to the community.
ReplyDelete2.The qualities that Jonas' needs for this job is intelligence,integrity,courage, and wisdom that jonas' needs. Fanally capacity to see beyond.
3. I think Jonas' life will change because its rare job that will give to a twelve. The book states he will be in training pravite and not be observed so I think its secret job. I think he is going to fail that job like the other one did ten years when Jonas' was a toddler.
Hi Richard ,
DeleteI agree with you because you mention that to able to receive the assignmant you must have intelligence, intergrity, courage, and wisdom . Which is correct and you said that he should take the job because its rare and I think so too because no one has the job so it would be cool that he stands out from everyone else.
Richard, I enjoy your responses. I can tell that you take the necessary time to gather your thoughts and input. Joana good comment in response to Richard's post! Keep up the good work both of you!
