The Giver Chapters 10-13 To what does the Giver compare the feeling of holding the memories of the world, and why?
What memories of natural wonders does Jonas learn the Community has given up in favor of “Sameness”?
What does the Giver say happened to the experience of snow?
What destination does Jonas sense in a dream influenced by the Giver, and why does he remember it?

1. They have given up memories like snow, mountains, ranbows

2. The first memory he receives is that of sledding in the snow.  Snow and the feeling of coldness are new experiences for him. He feels himself on a sled, moving downhill, and even the concept of a hill is new to him. He finds the sled ride experience exhilarating, but this leads him to question the Giver.

3. In the dream, Jonas has the sense that his sled on a hill is meant to be part of a journey to a particular place, "as if there were a destination" (p. 88).  And he feels that this is a good thing, that wherever he was meant to journey, it was "welcoming" (88) and "significant" (88).
