Answer:

The early relationship between Ralph and Piggy is strained because Piggy wants to be friends with Ralph, but Ralph isn't interested. Ralph told everyone Piggy's nickname to assert a sense of dominance and make himself look bigger to the other boys. I think this makes Ralph mean, but smart and calculated. He knew what sharing the nickname would do for him, but he did not care that it would hurt Piggy. Ralph's immediate betrayal of Piggy to make himself more popular shows that society has not done a good job of raising children to have good morals. It shows that it is highly accepted in society to put others down if it means bringing yourself up. Ralph is not a true friend to Piggy because he used him, betrayed him, and laughed at him.

sashaice [31]
Yes, you are correct. The answer would be letter A. <span>We were quite tired, and there being a large brick house near by, we inquired there... This is because the first person includes the speaker in an excerpt or narration, which is best depicted by the word 'we'.</span>

What are your impressions of the narrator? in the raven?
agasfer [191]
My impressions of the narrator in "The Raven," is that the narrator is had kind of lost it. He's mad in the head. That is my impression of the narrator because in the poem he spent an awfully long while being thrilled with the fact that someone knocked on his door. Only to open the door to nothing more but darkness.

Which is a difference of between fables and legends
frosja888 [35]

Both fables and legends are literary genres that are used to narrate stories. Fables are fictional stories whose characters are animals, plants or inanimate objects. Legends, on the other hand, are stories perceived or believed to have happened some time in human history and there is certain doubt if it really happened.  

Fables are meant to provide a moral lesson at the end whereas legends are meant to provide human values or qualities.  

An example of fable is “The Tortoise and the Hare” by Aesop. The main characters are the tortoise and the hare and a moral message is provided at the end.

An example of a legend is Robin Hood. Even though Robin Hood might have existed, the stories about him might not be all real.
