Chapter Three:
     He went to his desk, pretending not to be interested in the new child. On the other side of the room, Mother and Lily are bending over to watch as Father unwrapped its blanket.
(This paragraph shows everyone in the family is interested in the child Gabe, and  they all like him.)
      Everyone would have known, he remembered with humiliation, that the announcement ATTENTION. THIS IS A REMINDER TO MALE ELEVENS THAT OBJECTS ARE NOT TO BE REMOVED FROM THE RECRETION AREA AND THAT SNACKS ARE TO BE EATEN, NOT HOARED had been specifically directed at him, the day last month that he had taken an apple home.
(From this I see that Jonas is a naughty boy)
        But suddenly Jonas had noticed, following the path of the apple through the air with his eyes, that the piece of fruit in the midair had--well, this was the part that he couldn’t adequately understand--the apple had changed.
(Jonas is a boy that is good at observation)

The Giver
Chapter One：
Squinting toward the sky, he had seen the sleek jet, almost a blur at in high speed, go past, and a second later heard the blast of sound that followed.(This sentence made me know why Jonas what frightened means at the beginning.)
Then one more time, a moment later, from the opposite direction, the same plane. (Although this sentence is simple, it showed the sense of the tragedy.)
The sense of his own community silent, waiting, had made his stomach chum.(The adjectives and verbs made the sentence lively.)
Now, thinking about the feeling of fear as he pedaled home along the river path, he remembered that moment of palpable, stomach-sinking terror when the aircraft had streaked above. It was not what he was feeling now with December approaching. He searched for the right word to describe his own feeling. (This paragraph shows that the writer has already ended the description of the reason of Jonas’s frighten, and he is going to start another stay.)
Asher, who talked too fast and mixed things up, scrambling words and phrases until they were barely recognizable and often very funny.(This shows that Asher is a funny, friendly and easygoing person.)
Lily's feelings were always straightforward, fairly simple, usually easy to resolve.(This sentence tells us the character of Lily.)
Mother murmured sympathetically. Jonas and Lily both nodded sympathetically as well.(These two sentences show that the family is really kind and full of love in their hearts.)
"Yes," she said, "this talk will be a private one with Jonas." (This lets me know that the next chapter will be about a conversation Jonas’s ceremony of twelve.)

书名：The Giver
章节：Chapter 1
日期：2013,6,26
    I like this book the first time I read it. It’s by Lois Lowry, one of my favorite writers.
    “It was almost December, and Jonas was beginning to be frightened.” This is the first line of the book. I like to judge a book by its first line, and this gave (我建议用gives，一般现在时) me great curiosity, so I continued (continues) on with reading.
    The first chapter talks about a boy named Jonas.
    Jonas was once frightened a year ago when an unidentified aircraft had overflown the community. It was against the rules for pilots to fly over the community. The final decision for him was a release from the community, which frightened Jonas.
    That night, Jonas felt complicated, so he wasn’t eager to share his feelings at the evening telling of feelings, one of the rituals.
    From their family telling , I feel that the people in this book lived in a different world from ours. In that world, there were communities, each with their own rules. One must obey the rules, otherwise, he would be released from the community, which was a terrible punishment for them.
    When I finish reading the first chapter, I give a long sigh. I am beginning to feel that this book will be very interesting.

雁儿不太明白怎么分章节写，也不太会写故事的主要内容，而是写成整本书的读后感了。蓝色字体是我给她做的示范。

Giver
--The cover
My first impression of the cover is one word: strange. It’s almost as if a corner of the cover is torn off. The part on the right side shows an old man with wrinkles and extremely long beard with tears in his eyes. The man is colorless. On the left side, I can catch a glimpse flames lapping at the air and swallowing up the whole forest. The flames are bright red and orange while the trees are burned black.

This discovery makes me wonder, why does the illustrator split the cover into two parts, and why does one part has bright colors while the other does not? Those two parts are so different that they’re like two separated worlds.

The thing that attracts me the most is the old man’s eyes, so exhausted, so painful while still holding the tiniest glimmer of hope as they look at the direction of the burning forest. It seems that he feels sorry for the other world and it’s painful for him just to look at it. But somehow, I can tell by the tears in his eyes that he’s not only grieving for the other world but of his own, too.

Maybe one of the worlds is real while the other is just a faint memory; maybe one is the past while one is the present. To find out, I’ll have to tear up a corner of truth (which is what the cover is suggesting) and go ahead to read chapter one.
