So purpose of the fire was to send a signal to anyone on a boat or ship to come rescue the boys. However, later on in the story, someone sets the jungle on fire to kill Ralph. So, the fire was originally intended for good but then was used to do evil.

As for the drum roll, I think it represents chaos and future troubles they will encounter because they have "fallen apart as a society." There is a lot of discord among the boys.

Hopefully this helped and good luck.

Answer:

Is it necessary to have lived a certain number of years to be considered mature?

Healthy brain, healthy life.

That’s a big question, with many dimensions. I’ll summarise two of these in this post: my other posts will touch on this theme as well.

Walk your own path.

Use your signature strengths to build you pillars – or nurture your roots – to live life with meaning & purpose. This follows four broad steps:

1) adequately understanding yourself

2) having a clear set of well-formed outcomes for the major areas of your life

3) having a plan that works for you so that you live your life in a way that sees you achieving your well-formed outcomes

4) and finally, you adopt the habit of regular reflection to assess

No its not.

Maturity is getting a good understanding of the rules of the game and then being able to decide whether to play by them, adjust them, or create your own completely.

However to understand the game, you have to play. But because of the constraints set by society, our understanding of the game is often limited by insufficient experience. For example, Age and Money. I.e you must be a certain age to marry, work, drive, have kids. You must have a certain amount to money to have access to certain places. This creates the correlation between Age and maturity, and Age, Maturity and money.

In this Information age though, A lack of maturity can be defined as a lack of a vivid imagination and curiosity. Because information is every where.

Thank you and please rate me as brainliest as it will help me to level up

Read this adapted excerpt from "The Third Philippic," written by Demosthenes in 342 B.C.:
maria [59]

Answer: B.  second person

Explanation:

In the second person point of view, the narrator tells the story to either the audience, or another character, and uses the word '<em>you'</em>. This point of view is also recognized by the use of pronouns 'your', 'yours', 'yourself', or 'yourselves'. In any case, the common use of the second person pronouns in a text indicate that it is written in the second person point of view. This is exactly what happens in this passage - the narrator includes phrases such as<em> 'I assure</em><em><u> you</u></em><em>', 'may </em><em><u>you</u></em><em> never find </em><em><u>yourselves</u></em><em>...', '..to do anything that </em><em><u>you</u></em><em> should do...', '</em><em><u>you</u></em><em> will not suffer any harm'.</em>

As opposed to second person point of view, the narrator speaks in the first person when he talks about himself, his opinions or experiences. Third person limited point of view is used when the narrator knows the thoughts and feelings of one particular character. However, neither of these two options is the case in this excerpt.
