Ralph's main goal is to ensure . . .

That everyone has a job to do on the island.

That everyone survives the impending monster.

In chapter 2, "Fire on the Mountain," both Jack AND Ralph are embarrassed because they . . .

can't remember all the boys' names

The embarrassment of not being able to start a fire is important to the plot of LOTF because . . .

It shows that unlike Ralph once thought, these two leader figures need Piggy’s intelligence and logic.

It shows that unlike Simon demonstrates, these two leader figures can’t admit when they are wrong.

It shows that unlike Jack, Ralph needs Piggy’s help .

It shows that unlike Ralph is able to do, Jack can’t admit when he is wrong.

Piggy’s leadership traits include which of the following?

Ability to logically think things through

Gets others' to follow the rules

At the end of chapter 2's “Fire on the Mountain,” a reader can infer that . . .

The littlun with the birthmark didn't escape the fire.

A fire will completely consume the entire island.

Jack wanted the fire to get out of control on purpose.

Piggy is the reason the littlun can't be found.

"Jack was bent double. He was down like a sprinter, his nose only a few inches from the humid earth (. . .) then dog-like, uncomfortably on all fours yet unheeding his discomfort (. . .) Jack crouched with his face a few inches away from this clue (. . . ) his bare back was a mass of dark freckles and peeling sunburn. A sharpened stick about five feet long trailed from his right hand, and except for a pair of tattered shorts held up by his knife-belt he was naked. He closed his eyes, raised his head and breathed in gently with flared nostrils, assessing the current of warm air for information." Golding uses the key descriptions in this passage to portray Jack as what?

A wild animal who's on the hunt for his prey.

An innocent, young boy who needs food and shelter from sun burn and wild animals.

A true rebel who's let his hair grow out to show nonconformity.

A talented sprinter who's fast enough to catch a pig with his bare hands.

In chapter 3, "Huts on the Beach," what has Ralph been doing while Jack is gone hunting in the woods?

He is building huts with not much help from anyone else.

He is helping Jack to call in the pigs.

He's bossing the little’uns around.

He's taking it easy, swimming in the lagoon.

Why did the boys on the island need the shelters?

For protection from the rain and from the sun and for a sense of security.

For protection from the beastie, high winds, and cold rains.

For protection from the overhead military air raids.

For a place to store the pig's meat.

In chapter 3, which would be the best management skill that Ralph could have employed to get the huts built?

Putting together a plan for each boy and giving detailed instructions on how to build a hut.

Putting fear in the littluns by telling them the beastie would get them if they didn’t help.

Punishing the boys by not letting anyone use the huts unless they helped to build the huts.

Punishing the hunters by taking away their spears until the huts are built.

In chapter 3's "Huts on the Beach," what makes Ralph doubt his own belief that “this is a good island”?

the littluns aren't being taken care of

If readers want to prove that Jack’s hunters still have some remnants of civility left in the early part of the novel (through chapter 4), which textual evidence would be the strongest support for this claim?

“Now, though there was no parent to let fall a heavy hand, Maurice still felt the unease of wrongdoing.”

“Roger and Maurice came out of the forest. Rodger led the way through the castles, kicking them over.”

“Maurice followed, laughing, and added to the destruction.”

“In his other life Maurice had received chastisement for filling a younger eye with sand.”

In chapter 4's "Painted Faces and Long Hair," what mean thing does Roger do to a littlun sitting in the sand?

Roger throws rocks around where he's sitting.

Roger kicks sand into his face.

Roger throws rocks directly at his face.

Roger kicks both the littlun and the sandcastles.

As we previously discussed in class regarding chapter 4's scene in which Roger throws the rocks at the littlun who's playing on the beach, the scene serves as . . .

Foreshadow of future evil events later in the novel.

Metaphor comparing who the littluns represent and what the beach represents.

Flashback to how Roger was treated as a child.

Symbol for how savage the boys have become.

In chapter 4, "Painted Faces and Long Hair," the moment Jack sees the reflection of his painted face he . . .

sees an awesome stranger who becomes an uninhibited and a freer version of himself.

sees an awesome stranger who knows he is a coward deep inside.

sees an awesome stranger who sets out to scare little children and steal their goodies.

sees an awesome stranger who is absolutely nothing like himself.

It becomes quite obvious, in chapter 4, that Jack and his hunters care more about hunting pigs than getting rescued when . . .

They go off hunting and let the fire go out while a ship passes by the island.

They catch the whole mountain on fire because of their recklessness.

The go off hunting and let the fire go out so that it will dark enough to scare the littluns.

They let the fire burn too hot while roasting a pig so that there wasn’t any smoke.

If a reader wanted to prove that Ralph represents the desire to be pure and civilized, which form of textual evidence would be the strongest support for this claim?

“He noticed—in this new mood of comprehension—how the folds were stiff like card-board, and unpleasant; noticed too how the frayed edges of his shorts were making an uncomfortable, pink area on the front of his thighs. With convulsion of the mind, Ralph discovered dirt and decay, understood how much he disliked [it].”

“He was overcome with astonishment. He found himself understanding the wearisomeness of this life, where every path was an improvisation and a considerable part of one’s waking life was spent watching one’s feet.”

“He lost himself in a maze of thoughts that were rendered vague by his lack of words to express them.”

“He stopped, facing the strip; and remembering that first enthusiastic exploration as though it were a part of a brighter childhood, he smiled jeeringly.”

In chapter 5 and once Ralph begins to reflect on how chaotic the island is getting, what realization makes him readjust his own values?

That maybe he isn’t as qualified to be chief as he once thought because he can’t think like Piggy can.

That maybe he isn’t as qualified to be chief as he once thought because he can’t hunt like Jack can.

That maybe he isn’t as qualified to be chief as he once thought because he can’t keep and find peace like Simon can.

That maybe he isn’t as qualified to be chief as he once thought because he can’t be rude and mean like Roger can.

Piggy uses _______________ to explain to the others why there isn’t a need to worry about beast on the island.

Logic: “It’s scientific, that’s what it is. I know there isn’t no beast—not with claws and all that."

Persistence: “But there is no animal!”

Fear: “Serves you right if something did get you, you useless lot of cry-babies!”

Insight: “Maybe there is a beast…what I mean is maybe it’s only us.”

Jack uses ___________ to explain to the others why there isn’t any need to worry about a beast on the island.

Fear: “Serves you right if something did get you, you useless lot of cry-babies!”

Persistence: “But there is no animal!”

Logic: “It’s scientific, that’s what it is. I know there isn’t no beast—not with claws and all that.”

Insight: “Maybe there is a beast…what I mean is maybe it’s only us."

Because of the time period / setting, readers can infer that chapter 6's title “Beast from the Air” is reffering to . . .

A soldier who was shot down during WWII.

A hot air balloon rider who got lost during the 1700’s.

A plane passenger on his way to Hawaii during the 1960’s.

A spy trying to scope out the island during WWI.

In chapter 6, what becomes the dramatic irony?

When the readers know what the beast really is yet the characters do not know.

When the characters know what the beast really is yet the readers do not know.

When the fire is actually meant to be a symbol of hope but fear of the beast drives out this hope.

When the twins act so similarly that their names become joined.

Ralph wants to form a plan for overcoming the beast and is dismissive about Jack and his hunters being able to kill it.

Ralph wants to focus only on the fire, but Jack wants to focus only on killing pigs.

Ralph wants to hold a meeting, but Jack is the first one to blow the couch, thus overstepping his place.

Ralph doesn’t believe there is a real beast, but Jack wants to hunt it and kill it.

The most precise way to describe Jack’s round character is to say Jack changes from a civilized schoolboy to a/n . . .

A savage obsessed with sacrificing

While staring at the impaled pig’s head on a stick, Simon has a mystical experience that reveals what?

That the beast is the evil within the human heart and mind.

That the beast is really just the dead man with a parachute.

It was getting dark and Simon was hard to see

The boys hastily acted on impulse without thinking things through.

The hunters valued being able to have control over Piggy's logic and reason by taking away his sight.

The hunters valued being able to build a fire for rescue and security over savagery and barbarism.

In chapter 11, the murder of Piggy and the destruction of the conch symbolize . . .

The destruction of logic, rationality, and order.

The destruction of purity, love, and peace.

The destruction of status and democracy.

The destruction of savagery and sin.

The fire in the final chapter of LOTF is best interpreted as . . .

Ironic because it brought rescue when it was actually being used for death and doom.

Paradoxical because the fire got very hot, but the boys became very cold.

Metaphorical because it is comparing the fire on the island to that of a wildlife fire.

Symbolic because the fire represents hope and a Naval officer came to save them.

Finally, the end of LOTF . The ending of the novel is . . . Select ALL THAT APPLY.

Metaphorical because the Naval Captain is being compared to a savior (white, a crown) who will rescue the boys from the devil or evil (Lord of the Flies) their inner darkness and their sins committed while on the island.

Ironic because the Naval Captain is rescuing them from one war zone and taking them home and back into another real war zone.

Realistic because the Naval Captain knows they were only playing games like schoolboys do in real life.

Symbolic because the Nava Captain represents destruction of the island since he's affiliated with war.
