"The imaginary beast that frightens all the boys stands for the primal instinct of savagery that exists within all human beings. The boys are afraid of the beast, but only Simon reaches the realization that they fear the beast because it exists within each of them."

The name, “Lord of the Flies” is a translation (although many think it is a mistranslation) of the word Beelzebub which itself refers to the devil and evil. The relationship between the Lord of the Flies and the Beast is that they are the same. The physical Beast and the Lord of the Flies are both made up, but not nonexistent. Simon finds out that the Beast exists in the personality of everyone, and it drives the boys to rely on their instincts and become savages.

2 Piggy, his glasses and the conch are symbols of civilization, order and common sense; each represents something different. For instance, Piggy represents common sense on the island; through out the book Piggy is the one to offer sensible and civil ideas, like the conch. Without Piggy having noticed the conch the boys on the island would have dwindled away quicker than they did. This leads to the conch; which represents orders. Having had the conch the boys were able to decide who was chief and when to speak in their assemblies. The conch provided government and order to the boys. Without it the boys would not have figured:
a way to be rescued
division of work such as hunters, fire worker, and chief
or place to build a smoke signal fire.
Then you have Piggy's glasses, the symbol of civilization. The glasses were used to create fire; which is something that numerous civilizations use to cook stay warm and clean. To have fire the boys cling to their former selves as best they can. Yet when the fire is gone so is the boys civil mind.
In conclusion, all these things and beings was like a strand of the boys civilization that held them to their former lives and state of mind. AS the story continued though the boys were losing that strand to the savagery to par-took in.

3 When the boys started hurting each other. They were acting like uncivilized, brutal, cruel, barbaric animals.

liberstina [14]

I hated reading how too kill a mockingbird, Atticus and his sister have completely different meanings of trash. In chapter 23, Atticus and Jem are discussing the outcome of the Tom Robinson trial, and Atticus talks about racial injustice. Atticus then tells his son this,

. . . whenever a white man does that to a black man, no matter who he is, how rich he is, or how fine a family he comes from, that white man is trash (Lee, 224).

“Born Worker”from Petty Crimes "Born Worker" is told in the

Mila [183]

Answer:

C. Past; third person-omniscient.

Explanation:

The short story "Born Worker" by Gary Sato tells the story of a young boy's life of a working family. The story particularly tells the story of how Jose was taken advantage of by his cousin Arnie who did nothing while Jose did all the work.

The story is written or told in the past tense, with the use of the words such as "was", "told", "did", all signifying actions of the past. and the narration was done in the third-person omniscient point of view. In this point of view, the narrator is someone who has access to the feelings and emotions of all the characters of the story. It does not focus only on the mind of one person, but rather all of the other characters and is not part of the story. He is not a character in the story, but rather just a narrator.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

Which is a run-on sentence?

andrezito [222]

Answer:

Number 1

Explanation:

The sun was setting in the west, the clouds had become a vibrant pink. There is no form of transition in this sentence unlike the other 2. Sentence 2 uses "and" to separate two things that happened in the sentence and Sentence 3 uses a comma before introducing another thing in the sentence.

The first sentence doesn't use any word or comma to separate the two things within the sentence so it's a run-on sentence.
