Reading Questions Chapters 5-8

A lot has happen in the previous chapters 5-8 and what has happen has been really interesting. For the first time Jonas started having stirrings while he´s dreaming and now he is starting to take some pills to prevent that. Something big that happen was that all the ceremony´s started including the ceremony of twelve in which Jonas received his assignment. When all other ceremony´s before twelve ended it was the time to the elevens to become twelves. Jonas was very very nervous a bout what he's assignment would be, he didn't know at all what would it be. The chief elder started picking one per one to the elevens to go up to the stage, to get his or her assignment, and to become a twelve. Jonas was number 19 but just when the chief elder was going to said he´s number she didn't, instead she had skipped Jonas and continued with number 20. Jonas was very very embarrassed and he wanted to disappear, he didn't wanted to be there. When all numbers ended the chief elder assigned Jonas he´s assignment. She assigned Jonas to the job of Receiver of Memory and that was the most important job in the community.


A quote that I founded really interesting is the one the chief elder said when she had "assigned" Jonas and it goes like this, "Jonas has not being assigned, she informed the crowd and he´s heart sank. Then she went on Jonas has been selected." This quote really caught my attention because I think that  the chief elder was trying to say was that Jonas is very different from the others and that he´s very special. I cannot describe and I think neither Jonas could describe the feelings that he was having at that moment when the chief elder said the quote that I wrote previously. I really think Jonas is very special, I think the job that they gave him is the most important job in the community and I also think that he is going to do very well on he´s new job .


For my final thoughts I would like to clarify that Jonas is very special, that's why they gave hem that job and I also predict that Jonas is going to do it really well except that I think he's going to do something wrong and that the people that selected him to that assignment will be questioning if they choose wisely. I am very curious about what is going to happen next and I cant wait to read more.
