Been Fear
In the story of “Lord of the flies” by William Golding the author tells a story of a group of young boys who on a journey on a plane and they crashed into a deserted island, although many died, a couple survived. They find themselves on an island with no adults. They were having trouble getting civilized which makes them having different images such as thinking about things that do not survive or die such as beast and so on. Each one of them has their own rules for their own selves until the time came for voting for a leader. Piggy was a boy who plays multiple roles in the story, more than everybody else, and Ralph was a friend who does what Piggy told him because he wants to be a leader and Piggy has a better knowledge on survival skills which is needed on the island. Fear is something that people feel when they are afraid or feel danger at some point and is a dependant upon the amount of respect given to you by the community around you. In today’s world, fear is like a fundament deeply wired reactions to people. They are the type of imagination that people think could happen such as choosing or making up ideas that don’t exist.
In the book chapter 6 “Lord of the Flies” by William Golding the quote says --“In the darkness of early morning there were noises by the rock a little way down the side of the mountain. Tow boys rolled out a pile of brushwood and dead leaves, two dim shadows talking sleepily to each other…. Now they approach the darker smudge that had been the signal fire, yawing, rubbing their eyes, treading with practiced feet. When they reached it they stopped yawning, and one ran quickly back for brushwood and leaves.” (96) This shows that the boys feel fear because they were in the dark doing something when a figure heats in the tree. They thought it was a beast because it was in the night and they couldn't think of anything just only a beast because they scaring their own selves. In the real world, people in the village, if the people really wanted to become a leader the person needs to know all of their expectation about been a leader. Piggy was the person who gave Ralph advice and he can still be a leader by listening to someone. In the village, the people can just be leaders by listening to someone the person needs to think about what the person is responsible for and know your rights. According to the website president Trump wanted to be a leader but he doesn't know his rules he just made up anything, this site was talking about he was preparing for wars in North Korea. Later on, he sends a message to asked the Korean people to meet to avid the Backlash. In the book, Piggy was preparing for a leadership role while he knows what to do, he was giving advice to Ralph on how to be a leader. Piggy was the person who decides the better one but no one wanted to listen to him all they know is teasing him. This gives him the disadvantage because with this he has little to no chance of taking the leadership role.
In chapter 8 “Lord of the Flies” by William Golding this quote says, “Son was crying out something about a dead man on a hill.” kill the beast! Cut the throat! Spills his blood! Do him in!” (114) This quote is showing that Simon knows the truth about the beast and why all of these random events take place on the island. He quickly ran back to go tell his people but Jack was having a celebration in the night and the heavy storm started. Simon came there he was about to talk but they didn't know that was Simon. They felt fear and beat him up which leads to his death. In the real world, in the village people feel the same thing but it doesn't cause them to hunt each other for no reason because feel fear like what they did to Simon in the story. At some point, people feel fear like the little kids in the story but the elders do not mind them they just keep on going like Ralph who doesn't mind other kids who fear of the beast. According to the website is talking about how shooting affects people’s lives from taking away other people’s life. In the novel the kids feel fear whenever they hear or see something scary they get time to talk to Ralph when he was informing them that they were no beast on the Island; this is the same as guns if people understand the struggling of shooting other people’s life they feel shocked, worried and anxious they feel their lives were going to be taken away they get time to talk to people for help in order to get rid of the anger in themselves.
In my conclusion the novel of the Lord of the Flies when the people compared it to the real world connection it can stands to a lot of things for example when they take Simon as leader, Piggy can be like a student who gets bullied in school and Jack can be as a student bullier that scared the student all of the time and the Littluns can be the students in school who just do what they were asked for because they all from a school so that can basically have some connection with school properties. Piggy doesn't earn much respect as a person on the island due to the way he looks and carries himself. On the other hand, Ralph earns respect from the group of boys because he speaks his mind, although Piggy gives him most of the ideas. Also, look at Jack who gains most of the respective through placing fear into the other boys.
