The Giver Book Writing Prompt:
Comment on this observation that Jonas makes (pages 97-98): “If everything’s the same, then there aren’t any choices!” Please write a strong paragraph using descriptive words.

Answer:

On pages 97- 98 of The Giver Jonas made the remark of "If everything’s the same, then there aren’t any choices!"  I feel that he is correct when he says this, what Jonas is saying is that if everything in the world is the same, then how are we to make any choices? Jonas is right when he makes this remark because if we have nothing different to chose from than we cant make any choices. An example is if you want to pick the color blue or red, you wouldn't be able to in his world, because everything in the same.

In The Giver, written by Lois Lowry, Jonas who is the main character claims that "If everything's the same, then there aren't any choices!" He states this on pages 97-98 and I personally strongly agree with him. If everything is the same, every day would be extremely similar. So if you would want to keep everything the same, that would mean making little to no choices during the day. And that seems like quite a horrible situation to be stuck in for your whole life.

(Hope this is good!)

What point of view does Jefferson Davis express in this excerpt from his inaugural address?
The declared purpose of the compact of Union from which we have withdrawn was "to establish justic e, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessing of liberty to ourselves and our posterity;" and when, in the judgment of the sovereign States now composing this Confedera cy, it had been per verted from the purposes for which it was ordained, and had ceased to answer the ends for which it was established, a peaceful appeal to the ballot-box declared that so far as they were concerned, the government created by that compact should cease to exist. In this they merely asserted a right which the Declaration of Independence of 1776 had defined to be inalienable. The right solemnly proclaimed at the birth of the States, and which has been affirmed and reaffirmed in the bills of rights of States subsequently admitted into the Union of 1789, undeniably recognize in the people the power to resume the authority delegated for the purposes of government. Thus the sovereign States here represented proceeded to form this Confe deracy
