"But suddenly Jonas had noticed, following the path of the apple through the air with his eyes, that the piece of fruit had-well, this was the part that he couldn't adequately understand-the apple had changed. Just for an instant. It had changed in mid-air...Then it was in his hand, and he looked at it carefully, but it was the same apple. Unchanged. The same size and shape: a perfect sphere."

1)What do you think happened?
2)If the apple did change, then how, in your opinion did it change? What was different? Why? Explain your thoughts using any evidence from the book (page number) about what you think happened.

If Jonas thought he had the ability to look beyond, and the crowd changed, then the same must have happened with the apple. Maybe it changed shape or color or something like that.
