COMPARE

OK, that was a full summary, but I tried to keep it shorter, but oh well.
Anyway, you can see how different the two worlds are. Jonas's world is more sheltered, a things are planned and done very exactly. Its against the rules to lie and be rude, and unlike our world, people actually follow the big rules. Matty's world, Village, on the other hand, was like a refuge for traveler and people who had left other towns and hoped to have a better life (Matty himself had come from living on the streets in a nearby town). there is a rule on lying, but it's not followed as strictly as in Jonas's town, as is evident by Matty lying to his friend as to his destination. In Jonas's town all needs are taken care of; food, homes, jobs, family, all you can thing of. Village is good in that sense, but you need to buy or trade for everything you need. they are very different.
