Answer:

Explanation:

Landing on the Island

For the boys of Lord of the Flies, the island represents both their temporary home as well as their prison. There is no escape, unless they can signal to a passing boat or plane using a fire. From what they can tell, it 'was roughly boat-shaped: humped near this end with behind them the jumbled descent to the shore. On either side rocks, cliffs, treetops and a steep slope: forward there, the length of the boat, a tamer descent, tree-clad, with hints of pink: and then the jungly flat of the island, dense green, but drawn at the end to a pink tail.' The primary parts of the island are the the mountain on one end of the island; Castle Rock, a pink stone formation on the other end; the beach where the boys washed up after the plane crash; the jungle in the middle of the island; and the lagoon, 'a long, deep pool in the beach with a high ledge of pink granite at the further end.' In this apparent paradise, the boys initially think of themselves as kings unfettered by the demands of grownups. While the island appears to be a place of freedom, it actually traps the boys, physically and mentally.

Make a check by the correct sentence. 1. A. She leaned her bike against a tree, but the bike wouldn't stand up. B. She leaned he
MissTica

The correct option is D) “Both A & B are incorrect.” Both sentences are incorrect because of the use of the phrasal verb “stand up”. The meaning of the phrasal verb is to make yourself into an upright position and a bike cannot “stand up”. The correct verb would be “stand”, which means to take or maintain a specified position.  

The rest of the options are incorrect since the phrasal verb "To stand up" is on both sentences.

which most likely explains why the main character of grendel get stuck in a tree and is attacked by a bull
Ivan
I think Grendel get stuck in a tree because of his careless curiosity of the world above him, that of the humans. He know nothing about that world because he was used to his own world in the underground however he still get tempted to explore. He was also attacked by a bull there because he looks different from the rest of the creatures above.
