  3. I would feel very proud of my self yet quite scared of the pain to come.
    The questions running through my head would be:
    What do you mean the capability to see beyond?

  4. I would be shocked, scared and proud, proud that I have been chosen for a special assignment nobody else was chosen to. I would ask myself: Am I really that special? How was I chosen for such an important work?

  5. I would feel very proud but i would also be very scared wof what there is to come. The quistions that would go through my head would be: what will my job be, what kind of pain is she speaking about, what will happen to my current life.

  6. If I would been selected to the new receiver, I would feel very separat and apart, because it is very special assignment, and the community don't like things that are different. I would have many questions about this job, like what is it mean to receive memories, why the training will be apart and alone, and how my parents will accept me - they will be proud, shock ?

  7. If I was Jonas, I would be very happy and proud because I would know that my community trust me and that they think that I can be good at the most important assaignment of the coomunity.
    the questions I might have if I was sekected as the new reciever of memory:
    What kind of memories will I get?
    How will I be able to contain all these memories?
    Why was I selected and not somebody else?
    How nuch time will it take for me to feel comfortable with the assaignment?
    Will I be able to talk with friends sometimes?
    Will I live at home and work here or I will be here in the Annex room all the time?

  8. if we were selected to be the new receiver we will be very pround but also we will feel a bit scared and confused. we would not know why we've been selected, and it will be really scary to know that the work will conclude pain and physical pain. The questions that will run in our mind are:
    - Why wev'e been selected?
    - What is this job concluding?
    - Are our rules are the same? as the others
    - why do we need to be separate from the others?

  9. I would be very scared. I will ask and demand to know who was the last giver\recciver and what happened to him. Maybe ask my parents, or maybe the giver. I might think: what will they do to me?, why am I special?, why do I see things?, and who am I?

  10. - If I were selected to be reciever, I would be very afraid of the extreme pain to come. I would also be excited because I got the most important and honored job in the Community.
    - I would be very curious and wonder what are they going to do to me to cause such pain. I also wouldn't understand what "the Reciever" means and wouldn't know what I recieve. I would constantly be thinking: what are they going to do to me?

  11. If I were jonas i would be shocked by the fact I was elected as reciever of memories. I would want to know whatit means and what will I have to do, and how much pain would he experience.

  12. If I was Jonas I'll be probably be very scared and confused. As same as Jonas I will fill different an separate because after so much time of being the same as everyone and then have this dramatic change is very frightening. Although that I will feel honored the from all of tweleves i was chosen to fill the most difficult and important among all of the assignments.
    the questions I will ask are:
    what the assignment involves? what memories ill receive? how will i learn to do the asigment?

  13. I think that if I was Jonas I would have been quite nervous to be selected as the new receiver because it’s the most important and hard job in the community and all the memories of the world are given to your responsibility.
    The first three questions that I would ask are:
    1. What do I have to do as the receiver of memories?
    2. How am I supposed to "receive" all the memories? , how do I save all of them?
    3. Why I was the one chosen to be the receiver of memories?

  14. If i was Jonas I would feel very confused and very powerful too. But I'll ask myself why me? Why am I special? What are they going to do to me? What am I supposed to do now?

  15. If I was Jonas, at the moment of receiving the position, I would have froze. Terrified. Helpless. Immediately lonely. Those would have been my thoughts. And the questions in my head, would be around the lines of :
    Why me? What did I do? Seriously, why ruin my life? All I wanted was a peaceful, non-interesting life. I couldnt even have that? Thanks world. >:[

    If I was Jonas, I would feel weird, especially stunning. In the one hand I will be happy because I've been selected from a lot of other kids. At the other hand I'll feel scared because of few reasons:
    First, the Chief Elder said the work would be painful. Second, the community trust me and only me and third, the Chief Elder mentioned some qualities that maybe I don't have. The questions that might be running through my head are: "Am I ready for this?" "Am I good enough?" "What if the Chief Elder made a mistake?"

  17. If I was jonas I would be very confused and scared, because the chief elder said that even the community elders don't exactly know whats going to happen in this specific job. The chief elder also said that it would be painful and it will hurt. If I was jonas I would probably be afraid of the qualities I should have.
    The kind of thoughts I would have are:
    "Are they sure I'm righht for this job?"
    "Why would it be painful?"
    "Is it related to the case with apple?"
    "Why did they choose me?"

  18. If I was Jonas, I would be very pressured and scared, wondering what I would do in my job, what is expected of me in the future. Some of the questions I ask myself are:
    what is the receiver is like?
    what I'll become?
    How will people treate me?
    Will I feel the same after the traning?
    what is "seeing beyond"?

  19. I think that if I was chosen instead of Jonas to be the next receiver of memory I would be very surprised to be assigned to such an important job, so I would probably think: Why was I chosen, of all people? What is so special about me, what qualities did people find in me so I was assigned to this job? What does it tell about me?
    Also, because I don't know much about the job of the giver and receiver, I would try to understand, what kind of job is it? Why is it so important? Why does it considered as hard or painful? What are the rituals within this job?Are they any special rules I should obey or may disobey? And how do I take my part helping the community to thrive?

  20. First of all, I would think "why?", because I hate responsibility, and then I would think about what have I done to be worthy of this respectful job.
