Alright, lord of the flies !! quite a good book, in my opinion. here’s what i think about the questions, and what my answers are! i had similar questions last year, about LOTF.
1. LOTF takes place on an unnamed island in 1950, during a worldwide war.
2. at first, the boys are scared. they don’t know how they’ll survive without the people who have been doing basically everything for them for their lives, so far. their initial reaction, because of this, is to panic. nobody was following or “laying down” any rules at this point, they were just looking for things to get them through the night.
3. unlike the rest of the boys, ralph doesn’t quite go “crazy” at the beginning. he is nicer to piggy than jack, and tries to be civil, despite being trapped without any adults in sight. ralph has the characteristics of a great leader, including kindness, responsibility, the ability to work hard and stay strong, and of course, popularity. he became chief for these reasons, mainly, and that’s what sets him apart from the other boys.
4. simon is the “bright” one amongst the boys. he knows much more than they do, thus making him a valuable “asset”, in some of the boys’ eyes. however, he is also quite the mysterious character, as we see him first introduced as member of jack’s choir. some of his unique traits are his helpfulness and loyalty. he stays loyal for the duration of his life on that island, which is something the other boys could never do.
5. the first two chapters are more of introductions, than anything else. chapter one is the full introduction to the main idea of the story, who the characters are, and what their long-term goal is throughout the book. the boys are in fear more than anything in the first two chapters, making them have little to no action. chapter two includes some pieces such as what their plan is as to how they’ll get out, what lifestyle they develop, and how they’ll survive without their parents—or any adults—around.
i hope this was able to help you !! i’d really appreciate brainliest
Indefinite pronouns are those pronouns used in places of names or a specific person or thing. They do not specify what the pronoun is, nor do they provide any indication of what the pronoun represents. They replace the nouns but do not provide any indication of what nouns they stand for.
In the given sentence, we can use the indefinite pronoun "<em>everyone</em>" and "<em>nobody</em>" as the sentence is in the contrasting side of each other. So, the new sentence will be-
Suzy loves to bake cookies for her family. <em><u>Everyone </u></em>loves them, but <em><u>nobody </u></em>helps her clean up.
This shows that while all the members of the family loves her cookies, only few of them help her clean up. Also, the indefinite pronouns are in the singular form as the corresponding verb is in the present tense.
During those months Rachel's mother looked after Aaron with something close to genuine fondness-- not pity, not obligation-- as though Aaron had become the son she always wanted.
This sentence flows very nicely and also makes sense. You can see that the punctuation is proper, the sentence makes sense, and the grammar is correct. With that in mind, that it the correct sentence structure.
