8 May 1950
It was a crazy time being on the island with just schoolboys. We were on the plane to escape the war, but we had our own war. Many people think that children are innocent, that we are not capable of murder and brutal violence. But we are capable of such things. We can be savage. I desperately wanted to be civilised, building huts and trying to get rescued from the island. But in the end, I was one of them. I killed a boar yet I felt thrilled and was partly responsible for Simon’s death. I am ashamed of how evil I have become and can be.
I miss the civilised and responsible child I once was. But even though I have lost my childhood innocence and have seen more brutality than I could have ever imagined, I have never really lost who I am. I am still the Ralph that holds onto civilisation, and in some ways, I am still a chief. Leadership post-island life will be different as this time, I have a keen understanding of our human nature. And I want to be a better person to honour the death of my dear friends.
The misunderstanding that occurs early in the story "The Horned Toad" by Gerald Haslam between the grandma and the narrator is generated by communication barrier.
The grandma does not speak any other language except Spanish. This was too hard for the narrator to understand. There is a lack of communication caused by language barrier between the grandma and her grandson, the narrator.
Thus, the narrator felt insecure about the presence of his grandma, who came over to live with the extended family in California.

Explanation: I got the correct answer from PLATO.
The sentence which does not contain any
punctuation errors is:
<span><span>
A. </span><span>Waiting for my friends, I think that I arrived
too early. </span></span>
<span>
The sentence
is divided into dependent and independent clauses. The first clause is
dependent because it does not make sense and can’t stand alone without the
independent clause.</span>
