John was a popular student in high school. He was a star athlete, so he had a lot of friends and was invited to everything; prom

, homecoming, hangouts, parties. During his junior year of high school, he started dating Sophie. She went to a different school from John, but she was also popular. Her family had money, she always had the “coolest” things of the time. Her parents were not present in her homelife so she often threw parties. John started attending those parties on a regular basis, making friends over time at the parties. It didn’t take long for Sophie and John’s relationship to turn bad, she was very mentally and emotionally abusive to John. She was demanding and jealous. John did not want to leave the relationship because he thought he would lose all of his new friends. So he accepted the abuse to maintain his routine and friends; he leaned on alcohol to numb his pain. During the summer after John’s junior year, Troy, a new kid, moved to town and enrolled in Sophie’s school. Troy was a star athlete at his old town. Troy started attending summer gyms, and quickly made friends with the other boys. The boys were in Sophie and John’s friend group and quickly invited Troy to the parties at Sophie’s house. At the time the kid’s were not aware that Troy had “connections” from his old town, which was less than an hour away. When Troy attended the parties, he started bringing those “connections” with him. Soon all the kids started smoking weed along with their alcohol consumption at the parties. John was an athlete, so he maintained his “sober” lifestyle of only drinking, that way he would not fail a drug test. Troy’s “connections” quickly started giving him marijuana laced with LSD thinking it would give the kids a better “party”. The kid’s who now expected weed to be at the party, were now smoking what they thought was weed, just to find out that they were also using LSD. LSD gave them a “fun” trip so they liked the idea of it. John and Sophie’s relationship was still bad, and it was starting to get to

Piggy represents the voice of reason and logic, but is ignored explain why (3 sentence)
ryzh [129]
In the Lord of the Flies, the boys find themselves stranded on a deserted island with no adults to supervise them.

At first, the boys begin by forming rules and a structured way of life. In doing so, they attempt to be orderly. It isn't long, however, before these rules quickly begin to be disregarded. 

As they begin to disregard the rules, they begin to give into their savage sides. They stop wearing clothes, they cannot keep the signal fire going, and they only want to hunt and chant. They begin to be afraid of a "thing" lurking in the woods (which, of course, is not a monster at all) and even begin worshipping a dead animal. As their savagery grows, the boys do not want to hear anything reasonable and logical.

Piggy tries to be the voice of reason and logic, but the boys (with the exception of a few) don't want to hear it. On a literal level, Piggy's physical appearance (his weight, his asthma, his glasses) make him an outcast. He is forever calling the boys "children," even though he is the same age as them. This is one reason that the boys ignore Piggy.

However, Piggy is ignored for symbolic reasons as well. The boys have given into their dark sides and as a result Piggy is ignored. Their lives are given over to hunting, chanting, and savage dancing. When Piggy is finally killed at the end of the novel, it symbolizes the death of reason in the boys. All civilization in them has been destroyed by their time on the island and the fear it has created within them.

Sedbober [7]

Mr. Easton gave the excuse that Mr. Marshal wants to smoke therefore he must go with him as they were handcuffed. He said to her that it’s his duties and orders because of which he must leave.

The story “Hearts and Hands” by Edgar Allen Poe deals with the theme of outer appearance with which most of the people judge others. The story ends with the conclusion that appearances may be deceptive which alters the real self of a man. Since Mr. Marshal had a dull face and was not attractive because of which the girl got convinced that he was the prisoner. On the other hand, Mr. Easton looked attractive for Miss Fairchild. She wished to build a further relation with Mr. Easton but failed in doing so. Mr. Easton didn’t want his reality to be highlighted in front of her because of which he got off from the train.
