Why was Jonas chosen for his new role as receiver and why is it such an important job? What is his reaction to the rules? What does it mean when the Giver says that without memories, knowledge is meaningless?

Explanation:

After Jonas receives his first memory, he finds that it is not too hard to obey the rules that come with his position. His family is used to his not dreaming frequently, so they do not question him much at dream-telling time. His friends are so busy describing their own training experiences that he can just sit still and listen, knowing that he could not even begin to explain what happens in his training. Do you think this was it???

id say it means hes fearful and/or cautious

have a good day
