in lord of the flies chapter 5 what is the significance of the conversation between Ralph, Jack and piggy at the end of the chap

1 answer:
lord [1]2 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

Summary: Chapter 5

As Ralph walks along the beach, he thinks about how much of life is an improvisation and about how a considerable part of one’s waking life is spent watching one’s feet. Ralph is frustrated with his hair, which is now long, mangy, and always manages to fall in front of his eyes. He decides to call a meeting to attempt to bring the group back into line. Late in the evening, he blows the conch shell, and the boys gather on the beach.

At the meeting place, Ralph grips the conch shell and berates the boys for their failure to uphold the group’s rules. They have not done anything required of them: they refuse to work at building shelters, they do not gather drinking water, they neglect the signal fire, and they do not even use the designated toilet area. He restates the importance of the signal fire and attempts to allay the group’s growing fear of beasts and monsters. The littluns, in particular, are increasingly plagued by nightmare visions. Ralph says there are no monsters on the island. Jack likewise maintains that there is no beast, saying that everyone gets frightened and it is just a matter of putting up with it. Piggy seconds Ralph’s rational claim, but a ripple of fear runs through the group nonetheless.

What was the eye opening experience that Katniss had years back when she eyed a dandelion at the school yard?
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

The eye opening experience that Katniss has, after seeing the Dandelion, is that there is still hope, and that her family has a future, even though her father has died, her mother is in a deep depression and she has a younger sister to feed.  Bear in mind, that her family was starving to death(literally) her father (the source of money in the family) had just died, her mother was deeply depressed and unable to be a mother, so Katniss had to become the responsible adult in the family, even when she was only a teenager.

Specifically, <u>the Dandelion makes Katniss realize that she can go to the woods to collect edible plants (like dandelions) and then she starts hunting and she learns how to use a bow expertly, skill that will saver her life in the hunger games. </u>

Later on, Peeta becomes the symbol of the dandelion. (Spoiler alert) She ends up saying that what she needs in her life is <em>"the dandelion on the spring, the bright yellow that means rebirth instead of destruction,the promise that life can go on no matter how bad our losses". </em>
