9) Discuss whether Jonas' assignment as the next Receiver of Memory is an honor or a punishment?


Jonas' assignment as the next Receiver is an honor and a punishment at the same time. Its an honor because he has more respect from others,he always gets asked for his opinion by the Elders.Also,he has the possibility to see beyond, to understand the world without sameness better.He is allowed to go anywhere he wants, and attend any Release.
However, its also a punishment because he has to endure the physical pain, and be isolated from the rest of the community. I think that the worst part is that he cannot share his memories, his knowledge and emotions with anyone else.
