Answer:

<u>A dislike for</u>

Explanation:

When we are reading, we may an unusual or unknown word within a text, when this happens, we can use the surrounding information to help comprehend the meaning of that word, that is to say, we can use context clues. In the sentence the phrases "taste of oyster" and "had to hold his nose when he ate them" are all sings that he did not like it, thus "aversion" refers to "a dislike for", because when we dislike something, we try to avoid it with either of our senses (We prefer not to see it, not to touch it or not to smell it).

The other options are incorrect because you can not have a fondness for, nor fear or, the taste of an oyster. And since the action of holding his nose was of disgust, he did not have a weakness nor a desire for oysters.

What does “its like everyone tells a story about themselves inside their own head” means
valina [46]
I feel as if this is something you personally think about it. In my opinion, as a person everyone creates a story based on what they KNOW about them selves, you ask yourself a question and you answer within .5 seconds because you already have answers about yourself. In your head you build up a story because of all the facts you already know

Answer:

OKAYY SO I'VE DECIDED TO PICK JACK FOR YOU... I put them on bullet points so you write it out yourself later on

  • Golding achieves characterization by using direct and indirect techniques to establish the personalities of Ralph, Jack, Piggy, Simon, Roger, Sam, and Eric (Samneric). As a result, we come to understand them as symbolic icons of good, evil, reason, loyalty, and justice. <u>( I bolded the important details on this paragraph)</u>
  • Jack, Ralph's nemesis, is tall and thin. He is fair-skinned and freckled with piercing light blue eyes that easily convey anger.
  • Golding uses multiple methods to characterize Jack in Lord of the Flies, including direct and indirect characterization, dialogue, and the response of others. Direct characterization shows Jack's eyes were "ready to turn, to anger." Indirect characterization shows that Jack hunts and enjoys the k!ll. Characterizing Jack through dialogue includes his telling Piggy, “Shût up, Fàtty.” Golding also shows how Ralph responds to Jacks's commanding presence.

More About Jack:

  • Jack is the classic example of a dictator. He's determined to rule the island single-handed, and woe betides anyone brave or foolish enough to get in his way. Like all dictators, he uses a mixture of fear and violence to cement his power.
  • The strong-willed, egomaniacal Jack is the novel’s primary representative of the instinct of savagery, violence, and the desire for power—in short, the antithesis of Ralph. From the beginning of the novel, Jack desires power above all other things. He is furious when he loses the election to Ralph and continually pushes the boundaries of his subordinate role in the group. Early on, Jack retains the sense of moral propriety and behavior that society instilled in him—in fact, in school, he was the leader of the choirboys. The first time he encounters a pig, he is unable to k!ll it. But Jack soon becomes obsessed with hunting and devotes himself to the task, painting his face like a barbarian and giving himself over to bloodlust. The more savage Jack becomes, the more he is able to control the rest of the group. Indeed, apart from Ralph, Simon, and Piggy, the group largely follows Jack in casting off moral restraint and embracing violence and savagery. Jack’s love of authority and violence are intimately connected, as both enable him to feel powerful and exalted. By the end of the novel, Jack has learned to use the boys’ fear of the beast to control their behavior—a reminder of how religion and superstition can be manipulated as instruments of power.
