Unwind II Part Three-Transit II English

In the course of the book, Connor and Risa get separated from Lev, who travels for a time with another character. Why do you Shusterman choose to split the narrative into two distinct threads? What do you think this achieves? How does this affect the evolution of the characters?
This has allowed Lev to get more book time and to also allow him to gain more character development because really at the start he was just a kid who thought of Risa and Connor as his kidnappers and his real and only goal at the time was to get freedom from them and get unwound, though that changed when he called Pastor Dan. After he's separated he meets with Cy-Fi meeting these characters give Lev character devolvement and more book time. this also, however, tells us what happens when someone who's alive gets a part of someone's brain or any part attached to them.

On p125 & p129 the novel touches on same-sex relationships. Has the attitude towards same-sex couples changed (for better or worse) in this futuristic society? Explain your response
Not really as in our day and age someplace accept same-sex marriage because there are some states in America which allow same-sex Marriage and this story is based in America, we also know it's illegal because Cy-Fi says he has two dads who were mmarried even though marriage was illegal for same-sex marriage. I'm guessing that mmarried is a type of secret form of marriage.

P130 begins our journey into understanding a little more about Cy-Fi. Through his character, what do you learn about the effects of unwinding on both the donor and receiver?
We learned that Cy-Fi had a part of someone else's brain attached to his brain. this effected him in many ways, the effect was that there were times when he'd just lose control of himself and start stealing things. Something which he'd never do but it was something that the kid who got unwound would do, the kid who got a half of his brain attached to Cy-Fi. We find this out when Cy-Fi steals from a shop but later on tells Lev to take to away from out of his site in case he changes his mind, indicating to the part of his brain that belonged to the other kid, he also talks about how he sees things about this kid.

What is the real reason Cy-Fi needs to get to Joplin, Mo? pg131
Like the answer above, a part of his brain isn't his, it's another kids brain. Cy-Fi needed to go to Joplin because that's the one place he keeps seeing/hearing so he assumes that the kid who's now a part of him used to live there or someone close to him lives there.

What is the significance of Connor holding in his anger around Roland Pg 147
During the book Risa and Connor find themselves in an unwinding shelter with children who were going to get unwound, one of them also happens to be Roland. During their stay, Risa talks to Connor about how whenever some is near Connor they start talking about someone who could take down Roland. Risa said that it was best if Connor keep his anger in check, because if his anger got the best of him in front of Roland then it would likely be a fight that wouldn't end till either Roland or Connor died.

Connor's anger and lack of impulse control is often a problem for him until he learns to control and channel his emotions. Do you ever feel like your impulses are stronger than your will? What strategies do you use to control your feelings? Do they work?
I must admit there are times when I get into fights with my brother due to the things he says and once he says it, it's an immediate reaction for me to snap back because some things he says I find offending even if they don't seem to be.I also guess I just snap back now is because of when I was younger our relationship was like tipping iceberg and back then I was really sensitive and words hurt a lot for me back then, so it's sort of like a protective mechanism for me to just snap back. Other than that I don't follow my impulses unless it means comforting my friends if they're sad.
