Question #2

The individual numbers assigned to children are used occasionally, even after children have been given their name.

Which two sentences from this chapter best support that claim?

"They were arranged by their original numbers, the numbers they had been given at birth."

"The numbers were rarely used after the Naming."

"But each child knew his number, of course."

"Sometimes parents used them in irritation at a child's misbehavior, indicating that mischief made one unworthy of a name."
