rectify: to correct

capital punishment: Usually death penalty

This text was from the time of the Zouh.

2. If a leader is serious, people will respect him. When the leader is kind, people will be faithful to him.

3. When a leader leads correctly, his people will be correct. When they are not correct, death penalties will be their punishment.

Descrin<br><br> Explain how the fire at the end of the novel is heavily ironic
yanalaym [24]

Answer: It is ironic that the same fire that is a threat to Ralph's life actually prevents him from dying.

Explanation:

In <em>Lord of the Files</em> (1954), William Golding tells a story about the British boys who find themselves on a desert island.

At the end of the novel, it is Ralph's intention to create a signal fire so that the rescuers notice them. However, the fire that Jack sets rages and spreads through the forest. Jack's plan is to kill Ralph with the smoke from the fire. Instead of a sign used to attract attention, the fire thus becomes a danger to Ralph's life. The fire ultimately saves the boys, but the irony is that the fire that Jack set to kill Ralph actually saved him from dying, as they got rescued.
