Answer:
Saddened about human indifference
Explanation:
According to a different source, this question refers to the poem "Musee des Beaux Arts" by W. H. Auden.
The tone that the author uses in this poem is a sad and gloomy one. He is mostly saddened about the fact that people are often indifferent to the struggles, problems and even happy events of life. This indifference is at odds with the fact that the events are incredible, dreadful or miraculous, and therefore should command everyone's full attention. He describes how people have often been indifferent to even the most amazing events of life, such as the birth of Christ or the fall of Icarus. He also states that this level of indifference is often depicted in classical paintings.
Answer:
Which passage is this question talking about?
Explanation:
Answer:
I personally think Ralph but others may think differently
Explanation:
To be a good leader, one must cater to the people while still being responsible and taking charge. In the story “Lord of the Flies” by William Golding, a group of boys get stuck on an island without adults from a plane crash. Two of the main characters, Ralph and Jack, wish to be leader, but eventually end up splitting into two groups that result in a bit of a rivalry. Between the two, Ralph is a much better leader.
Ralph cares more for the boys than Jack. When mentioned, Ralph shut down the idea of the beast in attempt for the boys not to worry, “But I tell you there isn’t a beast!” (Golding, pg. 36) Jack let them believe in the beast, “but if there was a snake we’d hunt it and kill it.” (pg. 36) This shows that Ralph doesn’t want the others to think it is possible so they don’t fear and only focus on the beast, while Jack lets them believe in the beast and fear it. Ralph accepted and listened to everyone, including Piggy, but Jack always shut Piggy down for no good reason and punished anyone that wouldn’t listen to him, trying to take complete control of them like they were his puppets.
