HELP!! The Chief Elder announced that Jonas had been selected, not assigned, as the next Receiver of Memory. Such a selection was very, very rare. When she spoke of the current Receiver, she glanced at one of the Elders who . . . seemed oddly separate. . . a man Jonas had never noticed before, a bearded man with pale eyes.

What clue tells the reader that Jonas, Gabriel, and the strange Elder are connected?

the word selected

The man doesn’t seem to be like the other Elders.

Jonas’s selection, like Gabriel’s reprieve, is rare.

the man’s pale eyes

the word selected

Explanation:

As it is opined in the paragraph at first, that Jonas is announced to have been selected, not assigned as the next Receiver of memory. This reveals a certain amount of acquaintance could be possible between the three characters.

The rest of the options serve to build the mood of passage while the word 'selected' is doubled down on, right after it is mentioned making it look important to the eyes of the reader too.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
