Why do you think congress established a court system that allowed appeals to be made to a higher court?
Jobisdone [24]

Appellate jurisdiction means that the Court has the authority to review the decisions of lower courts. The United States district courts are the trial courts of the federal court system.  This is where federal cases are tried, where witnesses testify, and federal juries serve.   There are 94 federal district courts in the United States. Most of the cases the Supreme Court hears are appeals from lower courts.


I think it's necessary. We live in a society in the process of building a democracy accessible to all people. Like every process, we are subject to failure. The justice system has been questioned by social movements about their decisions, often considered unfair. In this way, the possibility of appealing to a new analysis of the case is important so that some decisions are reviewed.

"Here the littluns who had run after him caught up with him. They talked, cried out unintelligibly, lugged him toward the trees.
Damm [24]

Answer:

The "he" in the passage is Simon.

This quote is an example of symbolism.

Explanation:

William Golding's<em> Lord of the Flies</em> tells the story of a group of British boys stranded in a deserted island, and left to fend for themselves for survival. The story revolves around the theme of savagery and the struggle for power, away from a civilized world.

The classification of the group into <em>"biguns"</em> and <em>"littluns"</em> represents the strong and the weak, the older and the younger ones. Simon represents the middle ground of civilization and nature in one. As their stay in the island gets longer and they began to lose their sense of civilization, Simon represents the goodness remaining in a human. He felt the need to help the younger boys, thus pulling <em>"off the choicest (fruit) from up in the foliage, passed them back down to the endless outstretched hands"</em>. He is the remaining presence of goodness or humanity in the island, exerting kindness to others and helping those in need before his own needs.

This excerpt is an example of symbolism where Simon symbolizes the good, civilized world among the savagery of the other boys.
