Survival Lord Of The Flies Essay

British school boys that get stranded on an island how will they survive with no knowledge on survival.their plane gets shot down and they crash land “we was attacked”. So they got shot down judging by what the boys say which is crazy also how they survived. The author of the book is William Golding, the book was released 1945 it’s based on school boys who are going on a trip but crash land on an island. This book shows you how people can change on a specific situation how we can lose our civilization (humanity). These boys need to survive on this island until they get rescued if they get rescued so they need to begin to survive or they will just die. I'm going to be writing about one of the main characters named Ralph is a skinny boy with curly hair he is a character that caught my eye not only because he is the main character , but because how he isn’t like the other that lose some civilization. “We've got to have rules and obey them. After all we're not savages.We're english, and the english are best at everything .” this here shows that ralph is smart and knows they shouldn’t change how they are in any place.he is keeping them civilized because you don’t want everyone to become like animals.You always need someone like that if that would ever happen hopefully that never happens.
Right here it shows how young Ralph and they’re and there stuck in an island “No grownups!” that tells us he is young and immature because they are stuck in an island where they have to survive and yet he is excited that there isn’t any adults in the island that is some kid.Although i get him when i was his age i would be happy when my parents weren’t home i would just be excited like that and play with my friends.it felt good not being bossed around by my parents just hanging with my friends it just a great feeling , but you do start to miss your parents.

He is another quote why ralph caught my eye even though the most obvious leader was jack ralph still had something that caught the other school boys attention.”But there was a stillness about ralph as he sat that marked him out: there was his size, and attractive appearance; and most obscurely, yet most powerfully, there was the conch.” he is way better than jack he has more respect to the littluns and gives some hope to the people that they will get rescued. Ralph is still a kid after all but he matures in this situation which what a leader would of done.

Ralph does almost change later on he almost starts becoming savage but he doesn’t.Here is a part that will help and explain why i say he almost became savage.”Ralph too was fighting to get near, to get a handful of that brown, vulnerable flesh.”That right there shows how people can change , but he doesn’t because they were just pretending it was a pig just is crazy because what at that point they had a real pig i wonder if they would be worse from what they already acted.Ralph is still a good person he cares for others not like jack which just cares about meat.After all they are still very young so they aren’t like adults and stuff so you don’t know what can happen. As i said before that’s why i chose ralph he is a great character in the story.if you read the story you will like ralph so you should check out the story i recommend it to you.this is a good book that.Ralph is a good leader he has what it takes to lead others.
