这本书我们有，但估计读起来还是会不容易，还是先看看大家写的吧，给女儿参考。也可以用这种方式，写些别的她能读的简单些的书，一步步来！

Chapter Two：
Though Jonas had only become a Five the year that they acquired Lily and learned her name, he remembered the excitement, the conversations at home, wondering about her: how she would look, who she would be, how she would fit into their established family unit.( These memories are sweet and full of love. It shows the great love for his sister in Jonas’s heart.)
The Receiver was the most important Elder. ( I am wondering what’s the relation between the ‘receiver’ and the ‘give’.)
His father smiled. (This shows the memory had brought Jonas’s father great happiness.)
Every day, at the Nurturing Center, I play ounce-on-the-knee, and peek-a-boo, and hug-the-teddy.(This sentence makes me laugh, it also shows Jonas’s dad’s sense of humor.)
Though he had been reassured by the talk with his parents, he hadn't the slightest idea what Assignment the Elders would be selecting for his future, or how he might feel about it when the day came.( This let me know that Jonas was worried about his ceremony.)

Chapter Three：
Depth, he decided; as if one were looking into the clear water of the river, down to the bosom, where things might lurk which hadn't been discovered yet.(This let me know that both the child and Jonas are somehow special.)
It had changed in mid-air, he remembered. Then it was in his hand, and he looked at it carefully, but it was the same apple. Unchanged. The same size and shape: a perfect sphere. The same nondescript shade, about the same shade as his own tunic.( I thank this is the beginning to show that Jonas had special powers.)
The evening proceeded as all evenings did in the family unit, in the dwelling, in the community: quiet, reflective, a time for renewal and preparation for the day to come. It was different only in the addition to it of the new child with his pale, solemn,knowing eyes. ( This shows that this community is a warm, safe and well-mannered place. I think this new child will change a lot in the rest of the books.)

Chapter Four:
     Jonas rode at a leisurely pace, glancing at the bikeports beside the buildings to see if he could spot Asher’s. He didn’t often do at his volunteer hours with his friend because he frequently fooled around and made serious work a little difficult. But now, with Twelve coming so soon and the volunteer hours ending, it didn’t seem to matter.
(Jonas sometimes abandon his friend Asher because he is a little sluggish, but he now realized that he and Asher may part from the ceremony, and he begin to treasure the friendship between he and Asher, he is not going to abandon him now.)
     But he finally found Asher’s bicycle--leaning, as usual, instead of upright in its port, as it should have been--at the House of the Old.
(Jonas really knows Asher, though he wished Asher would be at other places, but his potential consciousness, as forever, knows where Asher will be.)
     The Old were sitting quietly, some visiting and talking with one another, others doing handwork and simple crafts. A few were asleep.
(The House of the Old was quite quiet, the Old’s life quite boring, and maybe after the young and passionate life, they need peace and quiet.)
　　　Each room was comfortably furnished, the floors covered with thick carpeting. It was a serene and slow-paced place, unlike the busy center of manufacture and distribution where the daily work of community occurred.
(The community is kind to the Old, to those which had gave there lives to devote the community, the people in the community are fair and square.)

Chapter Five:
     They all listened carefully and discussed with Lily the warning that the dream had given.
(The people in this family are all honorable listeners, they listen carefully, and make comments)
      He remembered that there was a reference to the Stirrings in the Book of Rules, though he didn’t remember what it said. And now and then Speaker mentioned it. ATTENTION. A REMINDER THAT STIRRING MUST BE REPORTED IN ORDER FOR TREATMENT TO TAKE PLACE.
(Though I do not know what is Stirring, but I think in this community, everything has been thought of, management is quite in place)
