The Value of human life
"Your life is My gift to you,Treat it like one"
"Surviving has earned you right to be respected"
Here is an example of some quotes from unwind.Your life is my gift to you,treat it like one that was a strong quote that the characters in book didn't listen too.But they had a reason because in an unwound position they have nothing to do but to depend on life.
Surviving has earned respect was also a strong quote because they have been through a-lot like con nor he is more mature because he looked after a stoked baby and he survived during that tough situation because it also puts his life in danger because they have to steal food for the baby to eat and they have to go to public so they have a higher chance of getting caught and con nor risked his life for the baby.
Legality vs Morality
During a unwound process As I see as my own opinion I reckon if it would harm one person and save many more lives because their would be more kids around and they would feel safe around around a harvest camp.It would be better to save many than one more because a-lot of smart and intelligent kids go to harvest camps like in the book unwind they tell us about Roland,Connor,Risa,Lev.They all had potential but they just didn't think right because Roland and connor had a fight and roland got unwound So Roland just wasn't thinking and that's what got him unwound.

Unwind part seven
- How is it that Connor was not unwound? p318
Connor isn't getting unwound because he's a good worker and they still need him around the graveyard.
- Whose arm does he now have? P319
- On p321 Risa tells Connors how she won't be unwound. Do you think her decision to not accept the spine of an Unwind was purely ethical, or was she also playing the system in order to stay alive?She knew con nor wouldn't be unwound so she followed him to what he was doing and how he beat the system.
- Since the explosions at Happy Jack, what have people been doing? What has Cy-Fi's role been in this? P325
Cy-fi is trying to make things suspicious so he's trying to keep it cool.
- Lev's parents disown him. Who is trying to become his guardian? P328.
pastor Dan is trying to give lev advice since lev parents don't have any connection with him.
- Why has Pastor Dan resigned? P329
he left the church because he doesn't want to be a pastor no more but he still believes in god.
- P331-332 explain what has happened to Harlan Dunfee. What do you think about the Admiral and his wife's plan? Was it what you expected?

Unwind part six
1-Connor and Risa are sent to Happy Jack Harvest Camp. Describe what it is like, and explain why it is like this. Connor and risa are nervous and wanting to runaway because their body parts will be taken.
2-What is the exact percentage of the Unwind that you have to keep alive? Why is it not 100%, as Risa believes?Risa knows what's has happened through out since she has been unwound and she knows your life is not at 100% and she knows their is like a 50%.
3-What do the unwinds call the place where unwinding occurs? P271
Harvest camps are where people get their body parts taken away from them and those body parts get taken to people that need it.
4-Lev too, is at Happy Jack, but as a tithe. Why is this?
Lev isn't really unwound because he's still getting earnings from the harvest camp.
5-On p278 Connor and Roland finally have the fight that's been brewing between them. What does each character realise during this?that they will both be cut into parts with the behavior their putting up with.
6-P284 - What group has Lev joined, who recruited him, and when will they follow out their plan? lev joins the clappers
7-Roland is called for unwinding on p286. Why is this?
Because of the fight they had and if they keep meeting again the'll always have fights and unwinding people can't put up with it.
8-Chapter 61 is arguably the most confronting chapter in the book. Here we have Roland's first person narrative of being unwound. Do you think this chapter is necessary? Why do you think Shusterman chose to have Roland's experience detailed? Do his memories alter how you view him? how I view him was a lost kid that had not one that loved him he was talented at things and I reckon in the after life the'll realise what life is about.

Part five
1-which job in the graveyard does Rosa get assigned to?
Rosa is a dishwasher so she does things like cleaning mostly around the graveyard like floor cleaning,dish cleaning,etc.
2-why doesn't Connors volunteer to work?
Connors didn't like the people around him so he didn't bother working because he knew their was no point trying to help out.

Fed-ex delivered Levi in a box but an average big size one that can fit at-least one or two in.

Admiral asks a lot of curious question to gain the trust he needs. 6-What, according to the Admiral, is it that Connor is becoming famous for in the Graveyard?p212 Connor is sort of getting a name for it because he kind of getting in charge of everyone.
7-How does Roland begin to assert his power in the Graveyard? (you'll need to look throughout the section) Roland begin's to become angry so they could be scared of him and so he'd get respect from others.
8-The Admiral was there when the Bill of Life was signed - do you think this detracts from the believably of the commonplace nature of Unwinding? In your opinion, do you think the book should have a few more generations between those who signed the Bill, and the present state in the novel? yes because then people could know if or when unwinding will be illegal or if it still happens to this day.
