Ch. 12: Cry Of The Hunters

Analysis:

In the end, the boys fortunately get rescued by a naval officer.  Ironically, he came to the island because he saw the smoke and that was what Ralph kept telling the boys on the island they needed to create.  They, however, only cared about hunting.  Although I am glad they all got saved, I do not think the other boys should have got saved because they became so savage-like.  Furthermore, they all begin to hunt Ralph for no real reason before they are rescued.  Luckily he does not die though.  Overall, I am glad Ralph got saved in the end.

Ch. 11: Castle Rock

Analysis: 

After reading this chapter I think there is no turning back for the boys now.  For one, they deliberately killed Piggy, which is the second death so far.  Also, they begin to attack Ralph who is lucky enough to escape into the forest by himself.  However, I do not think Ralph will survive much longer on his own.  Moreover, I think the boys are beginning to forget more and more about the real world and instead only thinking of killing.  As a result, I think there is going to be more deaths in the future.

 what they are now; savages

Ch. 10: The Shell And The Glasses

Analysis:

After reading this chapter, I think all boys future on the island are not looking good.  For one, they are still split up into two groups.  Also, none of them except Ralph admit that they killed Simon.  Instead they say it was an accident, try to forget it happened, or say it was actually the beast who disguised himself.  Lastly, Jacks group stole Piggy's glasses, so they know can start fires.  To me this is not good because they will probably loose control of themselves and start the island on fire.  All in all, I do not think the boys will survive much longer if they keep acting this way.

This was the reason Jack's tribe attacked Ralph's group; to get Piggy's glasses

Ch. 9: A View To A Death

Analysis: 

Any last hopes of being civilized people have all been erased and replaced by savage instincts.  This happened because Jack has created his own tribe that most of the boys joined simply because it seems more fun.  However, this is causing them to forget about the rules they created and making them begin acting more and more barbaric.  For example, they all end up killing Simon because they mistake him for the beast.  In my opinion, this shows that they now have become full out savages since they killed one of their own people. Also, I find it hard to believe that they never noticed the person they were attacking was actually one of them.  Overall, I predict this will only be the start of the deaths among the boys.

This picture shows the aftermath of what happened when the boys

mistaked Simon for the beast.

Ch. 8: Gift For The Darkness

Analysis:

The boys have now split into two groups; one with Ralph as the chief and one with Jack as the chief.  This is not good because now the boys are not working together anymore.  As a result, they only care about themselves so to start a fire Jack's group steals sticks from Ralph's group expectantly.  In addition, more and more of the boys are starting to join Jack's group because they think he has more fun and better food.  To me, this will cause more fighting among the boys and make them more savage-like like Jack.  On the other hand Simon starts to hear voices from a dead pig head known as the Lord of the Flies.  In my opinion, this head represents the beast and evil that exists in every person which is starting to come out in all the boys.

    This picture shows the pig that the hunters killed & sacrificed for the beast.  Also, Simon                             later finds himself talking to the head when he is alone in the forest.

Ch. 7: Shadows and Tall Trees

Analysis:

It is clear that the boys are drifting more and more away from civilization and their old ways to savagery.  For example, while looking for the beast the boys become distracted with looking for a pig.  Furthermore, they all become a little to entertained with killing the pig that they reenact it.  Even Ralph, who seemed like the most civil one, got caught up in the moment.  As a result, they started attacking and hurting one the boys acting as a pig until they realized they were just playing a game.  This shows how the boys are becoming more like savages and starting to attack their own kind.  Overall, I think this will lead to one of the boys getting hurt while they are playing another "game".

Ch. 6: Beast From Air

Analysis:

This chapter shows how the fear of the beast is growing among the boys on the island.  Personally, I do not believe the beast is real, however, the twins claim it tried to attack them.  As a result, the boys set out on an expedition to search for the supposed beast.  Of course the boys become a little distracted along the way and Ralph has to remind them of their mission and about keeping the fire going.  In my opinion, the boys will not find any beast on the mountain, but instead a parachute that dropped on the island from the battle in the sky.  Once they do actually find the parachute though, I think they will try to use it to escape the island.  Furthermore, they may think someone else is on the island now and try to hunt them down.
