3.)When Jonas receives his list of rules and learns that he can lie, he reacts with fear and revulsion. He does not want to be able to lie, and the thought of lying is unsettling.

He does not take part in most community events. Before being selected as the new Receiver, Jonas is only vaguely aware of who he is. Jonas notices that the man, “a bearded man with pale eyes,” is watching him during the ceremonies.

5.)The Receiver feels weighed down by so many memories and compares the feeling to a sled slowing down as it has to push against more and more accumulated snow. Jonas does not understand the comparison, because he has never seen snow or a sled. The Receiver decides to transmit the memory of snow to him.

The answer is C. The reason I say C is because I had this same question on a quiz I had over "The Raven" and I got it wrong and C was the right answer. Not to mention, it makes sense. He screams out his lover's name over and over again even though she's gone and he knows it.
