📖 題組:
The Giver is a story about a young boy called Jonas who lives in a society free of crime, suffering and sadness. There is no color, music or emotion, and individuality is prohibited. Everything is chosen; from your parents to your partner. At 12, children are assigned their jobs, which they will train for and do for the rest of their lives. Jonas is assigned to become the new Receiver of Memory, also known as the Giver. The Receiver holds all the bad and good memories of the past. In other words, no one in the community has any memory of humankind's history. The storyline is complex enough to hold the attention of both young and old readers. The development of Jonas from a scared boy to someone willing to risk his future to save the community is enjoyable to follow. The story prompts us to reflect on the path of growing up. At first we are scared to accept that there are new responsibilities, but as we slowly get used to it, we want to move more and more away from childhood. What's also impressive is Jonas' loss of trust in his father. At the beginning, Jonas believes his parents completely. However, after the current Receiver shows Jonas the tape of his father killing and disposing of a new born child, Jonas loses his admiration of his father. This moment is what forces Jonas to leave the community. It is symbolic of the change from the innocent mind of a child into the questioning and educated mind of an adult. The ending is another aspect which makes this book interesting to read. There are two possible meanings behind the ending and readers have a choice in what it means: either Jonas freezes to death on the sled, or he has really found "Elsewhere." The ending shows us that, whatever happens, Jonas has made choices for himself rather than being told what to do.

思路引導 VIP
請思考一下:在一個連你的「父母」、「伴侶」以及「未來的職業」都由政府統一規劃並指派,且所有人都不被允許擁有情感與音樂的環境中,這個社會是在追求「多元差異」,還是在強制維持「每個人都一樣」的狀態呢?

- 不錯嘛,砍中要害了:這回沒迷路,直接砍到了文本的核心限制。這招「三刀流解題法」不錯,直接把社會的控制手段劈開了。看來你眼神還行,沒被這些歪七扭八的文字擋住。
- 路徑很清楚:看清楚了,第一段就寫著「individuality is prohibited」(個人特質,禁止!),還說「Everything is chosen」(連父母職業都是被選的)。這根本就是一條死路,沒有個人獨特性這種東西,完全消失了!所以 (D) 這個方向,是對的。沒有岔路。
