To determine why Jonas shares a memory with Gabriel, we need to analyze the given options: A, B, C, and D.
A. He is trying to calm the baby and lull him back to sleep.
Although calming the baby is one reason for sharing a memory, it may not necessarily provide a definitive answer as to why Jonas specifically chose to share a memory with Gabriel.
B. He is eager to transmit his experiences to a member of the community.
Sharing his experiences could be one possible reason for Jonas to share a memory with Gabriel. However, since Gabriel is just a baby, it is unlikely that Jonas consciously intends to transmit his experiences to him.
C. He does not think anything is wrong with sharing his memories.
This answer implies that Jonas shares a memory with Gabriel simply because he doesn't see any issue with doing so. However, this is not the primary motivation behind his decision.
D. He feels it is his duty to prevent the baby from being released.
This choice suggests that Jonas shares a memory with Gabriel because he wants to prevent the baby from being released, which is correct. Towards the end of the novel "The Giver" by Lois Lowry, Jonas discovers that Gabriel's life is in danger of being released, or euthanized. By sharing memories with Gabriel, Jonas hopes to awaken in him a sense of individuality and emotion, making him less likely to be deemed unfit to live.
Therefore, the correct answer is D. He feels it is his duty to prevent the baby from being released.
