Answer:

In "The Lord of the Flies" the actual pig head symbolizes:

B) The evil within ourselves

Explanation:

There is a contrast between the light and the dark with the symbol of bright butterflies and the black flies on the head of the pig. The conflict between good and evil is portrayed with this symbol. Evil is associated primarily with the beasts in the novel like the pig's head and a snake.

Jack and the other hunters kill a pig and put his head on a spike. This dead pig was meant to be the dead “Lord of the Flies” beast that they were afraid of. However, the Lord of the Flies says to Simon that he is ignorant for thinking the “beast” is something that they could kill. He says, “You knew, didn’t you? I’m part of you?” Simon knows the actual pig head isn’t killing the beast because the fear they have for a “beast” isn’t a physical manifestation, it represents our fear of the evil within ourselves.

Which of these is a theme found in The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton? Gentle souls are often disguised by rough exteriors. Rich kids

patriot [66]

Your answer is gentle souls are often disguised by rough exteriors. The others do not cover the overall theme of the book. Yes some rich and poor kids do not get along, but that is not an overall lesson. Also how often did they walk home alone. The story does not revolve around that. Last, Cherry was not a main character, she was not a main part of the plot. So your answer is once again the first one, it goes with the overall plot of the story.
