Should We Choose Your Future?

The giver follows the life of a young boy named Jonas. In the future, society is different from now, emotions, colour, pain, and liberty are all things of the past, in this alleged dystopian novel. Thorough explanation of this is left out in the novel, what we know is some war or tragedy due to all the emotions, opinions, cultures etc. led to great measures being taken. Thus eliminating all feelings both good and bad, which in turn dehumanized the whole population almost making them in to living robots, just so that the chance of another catastrophe is narrowed down to almost zero. Liberty is merely an illusion in this novel since no choices are made by the people only by the “elders” who aren't explained a lot either

This essay is about comparing the Giver book and movie. The Giver is a story about a boy named Jonas who was chosen to be the community’s next Receiver of Memory. He lived in a community where everything was chosen for the citizens, and everything was perfect. During Jonas' training, he realized that the community was missing something and that there was more in the world. Jonas wanted the everybody to know that. The Giver book was then made into a movie. Though the two were based on the same story, there are three important differences that could've made them two separate stories. The three main differences between the book and the movie are Asher and Fiona's Assignments, the similarity all Receivers had and the Chief Elder's role.

In The Giver, everything and everyone within the community look the same, and everything revolves around sameness. At the ceremony of twelve, Jonas receives the assignment as the next Giver, which represents the most honored assignment in the community. Jonas learns the “ Rules” of the receiver and begins receiving memories of the past, such as weather and feelings. Jonas begins to experience pain and suffering, and learns that the last receiver, Rosemary, asked for a release. A new child comes to live with Jonas, and Jonas transmits memories to him so he can fall asleep. Jonas begins to see the color red, and The Giver transmits different colors. Jonas begins to see the color red, and The Giver transmits different colors. Jonas continues

Imagine having everything you wished for. You would live in a perfect world. But every world has imperfections and you come across to realizing...a perfect world doesn’t exist. Within time, you come from an illusion to reality. You choose your journey and it starts here. The community is a separate environment from the world and has many rules to live by. The rules can vary to be severe consequences. It includes sameness, no memories, and family unit regulations. The kids end their childhood at the age of 12 by receiving their life assignment. The main character, Jonas is chosen to be the receiver of memory. He is reliable to hold everyone's feelings, hopes, and devotions. In The Giver the author Lois Lowry uses the theme of change to reveal that growing up in “the community” is a non-stressful and organized environment but Jonas finds the real world a whole different place when he receives memories about strong feelings and hardships, intellects the word “love”, and how important it is to be an individual.

With rights I can do all kinds of other things that some countries don't get to do like vote,we get to vote for are president,governor and other leaders in america to help the world to find you we thing with best be suited for the job. Another right is that we have the freedom of speech,which means that I can say whatever I want,when I want and where I want and that is important because some countries don't let you do that they might get punished for doing that.Another right is that you have the right of freedom and life which means you get to pick and do what you want to do in your life and decide things like jobs people just can't pick those for you because it is your

The Giver is a book with many important messages, and one message that I feel that wasn't conveyed as well in the movie is that freedom of choice is important, and we shouldn't take it for granted. The movie focuses on a lot more on the importance of memories.

The giver by Lois Lowry was an interesting book to say the least. In the beginning you are lead to believe these are normal kids and characters, possibly in the future, but in pretty much the same state of mind as our definition of “human” today. As the book goes on, you are slowly let in on details, like the characters can not see color, and that the parents are not biological parents, and everything is organized and decided for the characters in the book. The author did a great job of slowly bringing us into the world of sameness quite the same way the giver slowly brought Jonas into the world of memories. I believe the subject of the book is the Importance of the Individual. As corny as it sounds, we spend much of our life trying to be just like everyone else. I think Lois Lowry wrote this entire novel just to show how horrible it would be if everyone was the same as everyone else.

The setting of The Giver is bleak and lackluster, portraying everyone and everything as the same. There are no differences or any uniqueness. All of the families have the same amount of people in their household. For example, the book describes families as “two children-one male, one female- to each family unit. It was written very clearly in the rules” (11). People dress, speak, and even think similarly. With the strict rules the town makes force everyone to be the same. The citizens have to talk in a certain way or they will get punished. The girls cannot do their hair differently than others. Children are not allowed to ride bicycles until they turn nine years old. The

Imagine getting the same gift as your friends every year for your birthday. In Lois Lowry’s book The Giver, each year everyone of a certain age group gets the same present. They receive these gifts at the Ceremony. The ceremonies award each child a gift as they age and our society represents independence in a similar way.

When it comes to the rights of the inhabitants and the rights of the government in The Giver. The government and the citizens have a lot of similarities but they change depending on the person’s job. For example most people have a curfew but for people that clean the streets at night they are allowed out after the

The Giver book and The Giver movie are interchangeable in many ways. One of the similarities between The Giver book and The Giver movie is the Utopian society. In order to achieve a perfect world, you need Sameness. Also, in both The Giver movie and The Giver book Jonas is assigned receiver. Furthermore, in both the book and the movie there is precision of language.

The giver is different because evreyone got the same thing everyone wore the same thing, and they would pick your job. Also anyone didn’t have emotions and couldn't see color.

There is a fight and it comes to peace. The Giver is a story close to a utopia and the elders choose everything that you do like your job and if you get something

The giver is a fictional novel authorised by Louis Lowry dedicated to informing readers about the devastating impact of extreme conformity on a community. As we progress throughout the book we start to realise and learn all these new things about the giver's community, such as creating and trying to maintain a perfect community, that comes beyond our abilities, while the givers society is having a huge impact on the individuality and individual choices on the members of the community. We learn that the inhabitants of the society had a hard time handling all the different memories, in a sudden event. All hints and evidence to these statements above are hidden and presented throughout the book.

The giver revolves around sameness. All the girls have the same haircut and all the boys have the same hair cut. Everything is black and white because they don't want them to see color. There cloths are the same and there lifestyle.(Lowry) Reality is everything is in color and you can dress however you want and have whatever haircut you want.
