📖 The Giver

In Lois Lowr y's Newber y Medal-winning classic, twelve-year-old Jonas lives in a seemingly ideal world. Not until he is given his life assignment as the Receiver does he begin to understand the dark secrets behind his fragile community. The Giver, the 1994 Newber y Medal winner, has become one of the most influential novels of our time. The haunting stor y centers on twelve-year-old Jonas, who lives in a seemingly ideal, if colorless, a world of conformity and contentment. Not until he is given his life assignment as the Receiver of Memor y does he begin to understand the dark , complex secrets behind his fragile community. The themes of freedom and security are balancedly and beautifully presented. Talks about a world presented as a utopia but is really a dystopia. I highly recommend this book , not only is it intriguing in ever y event of the book , the more you think about those events, it slowly changes your perspective on how you view Jonas and his life assignment. As someone who read this when I was younger, I found it to be one of my favorite books that were really interesting. I also had a perspective of Jonas when I was younger, but now as I rethink it, my perspective and thoughts have totally changed. It's a book that really makes you think if you ponder over it long enough. The Hunger Games

在Lois Lowr y这部获得纽伯瑞奖的经典作品中,12岁的Jonas生活在一个看似理 想的世界里。直到他被挑选出来接任"记忆接受者"这个职位,接受同化之前人类所有的 记忆。乔纳斯从他的前任——授者那里获得了这些记忆,这时他才开始了解这个脆弱 的社区背后的黑暗秘密。1994年纽伯瑞奖得主《授者》成为当代最具影响力的小说之 一。这个令人难以忘怀的故事围绕着12岁的乔纳斯展开,他生活在一个看似理想的世 界里,尽管没有色彩,但却充满了一致性和满足感。直到他被赋予了作为记忆接收者 的生命使命,他才开始理解他脆弱的群体背后的黑暗、复杂的秘密。 我的推荐: 自由和安全的主题被平衡而优美地呈现出来。 说的是一个乌托邦的世界,但实际上是一个反乌托邦的故事。 我强烈推荐这本书,书中的每一个事件都很有趣,当你深入思考这些事件,它就会慢 慢改变你对乔纳斯和他的人生任务的看法。我小时候就读过这本书,我觉得它是我最 喜欢的书之一,真的很有趣。当我再次重读这本书时,很多当年的看法都发生了巨大 的改变。如果你仔细看过这本书,它的确会引发你的很多思考。

The Giver is about an eleven year old boy named Jonas who lives in a society built around the idea of sameness. He lives in a society where pain, suffering, hate, and war have all been eradicated. But as he soon learns, this absence of pain and suffering leads to everyone leading monotonous and emotionless lives, making him realize that his society is dull and without love. With his newfound passion and emotion, will Jonas be able to reintroduce love and emotion back into his community? I recommend this book because it is a classic dystopian novel in which we think that Jonas lives in a utopian society, but really he lives in a dull and monotonous dystopian society. The book is written in a way that is easy to understand while also giving readers the chance to think deeply about Jonas's society. From this book we can learn that in life, happiness means nothing if there is no pain or sadness to contrast it.

The Giver 讲述了一个名叫 Jonas 的 11 岁男孩的故事,他生活在一个以千篇一律为理念的社会中。 他生活在一个痛苦、苦难、仇恨和战争都已被根除的社会中。 但他很快了解到,这种没有痛苦和苦难的感觉导致每个人都过着单调和没有感情的生活,让他意识到他的社会是乏味的,没有爱。 凭借他新发现的热情和情感,乔纳斯能否将爱和情感重新引入他的社区? 我推荐这本书是因为它是一部经典的反乌托邦小说,我们认为乔纳斯生活在一个乌托邦社会,但实际上他生活在一个沉闷单调的反乌托邦社会。 这本书以一种易于理解的方式编写,同时也让读者有机会深入思考乔纳斯的社会。 从这本书中我们可以了解到,在生活中,如果没有痛苦或悲伤的对比,幸福就毫无意义。
