The book required – Lord of the Flies by William Golding
1.) Regarding Chapter 9, think over the organization of Jack’s tribe and the kind Ralph tried to establish with the group. How would you label each leader and each system? Which would you prefer to be a member of? Support your answers with evidence from the book.
2.) Contrast nature with humanity at the end of Chapter 9.
3.) When Ralph tells Piggy that he is frightened “of us” and wants to go home, he is echoing Simon’s earlier statement that perhaps the boys themselves are the beast. Was Simon right? Does Ralph have reason to be frightened “of us”? Explain.
4.) What does Jack’s denial that they killed the beast reveal about him? What does his plan that they keep “on the right side of the beast” suggest about the way in which people frequently deal with their fears and superstitions? What, in our society, might this be a commentary on? Does Jack’s continuing to promote the existence of the beast to the others give him any advantage over them?
5.) Parse and analyze ANY sentence from either Chapter 9 or Chapter 10. You must have a clear claim with warranted evidence from the quote. With your knowledge of grammar, mechanics, and rhetoric along with your keen analytical abilities, how does the form (including diction) of this sentence influence the content? Make sure to use specific grammatical/rhetorical terms.
