Chapters 8-10

1. How would you describe release in Jonas’s community?How would you feel if release occurred in your community? What would be the pros and cons of having release?

It's happy for release because you get to get out of there. I would feel sad because you wont be able to come back again. The good part is you will do things you never been able to do in the community. The bad part is you will never be able to come back ever again and you can never see you're family agian.


2. Jonas says that it is better to talk about ways people are the same instead of different. Why do you think he feels this way? If you and all of your classmates felt this way, how would your class/classroom be different than it is now? Would people be different? How?

He think's this way because is it not right to mack fun of other people tthat is different then you. It would be different because no one will be saying bad things about other people. Yes, people would be different. A person could be small a person could be big no matter how big,small,fat or skinny we are all alike in some way. You proberly don't know it but you are all the same in a way.



3.Would you like to be considered an adult and begin training for your lifetime job at the age of 12? Explain.

No because You have to pay bills and you don't get to play after you get you're homework done.

4. Jonas is said to have intelligence. He’s also told that he will soon gain the wisdom he needs for his job. What do you think are the differences between intelligence and wisdom? Chapter 8

I think people that are wise probably have more wisdom than a person that is intelligent. I also think a person that is intelligent has more intelligent in school than in the world. Intelligence and Wisdom are different than they are alike.
