Novel: Lord Of The Flies Quiz! Trivia

The explanation for the given correct answer is that the boys are rescued. This means that they are saved or brought to safety by someone or something. The context of the question suggests that the boys were in a dangerous situation, possibly stranded on an island. However, the details of how they are rescued or who rescues them are not provided.

The correct answer is "British" because the question is asking for the nationality of the boys. Out of the given options, British is the only nationality mentioned, so it is the correct answer.

Samneric refers to the twins in the novel "Lord of the Flies" by William Golding. The name is a combination of their individual names, Sam and Eric, merged into one word. They are loyal followers of Ralph and play a crucial role in the story as they struggle with their own identities and allegiances.

Jack is the correct answer because in the novel "Lord of the Flies" by William Golding, Jack becomes bored with Ralph's leadership and decides to form his own tribe. This happens after the boys are stranded on the deserted island and start to descend into savagery. Jack's tribe represents the darker, more primal side of human nature, contrasting with Ralph's attempt to maintain order and civilization. Jack's decision to form a new tribe is driven by his desire for power and control, as well as his rejection of Ralph's authority.

Piggy's specs, or glasses, can be used to light a fire by focusing the sunlight onto a small area, such as a pile of dry leaves or twigs. The lenses act as a magnifying glass, concentrating the sun's rays and creating enough heat to ignite the materials. This method is commonly known as using a "fire lens" and can be a useful survival technique when matches or lighters are not available.

Ralph and Piggy get very angry at Jack for letting the fire go out. This suggests that Jack was responsible for maintaining the fire and ensuring it did not go out. The fire is a symbol of hope and rescue for the boys stranded on the island, so Jack's negligence in letting it go out is a significant failure on his part. This incident further highlights the growing tension and conflict between Ralph's group, who prioritize rescue, and Jack's group, who prioritize hunting and power.

In the novel "Lord of the Flies" by William Golding, the hunters steal Piggy's specs from Ralph's camp at night. Piggy's specs are a symbol of knowledge, intelligence, and civilization. By stealing them, the hunters demonstrate their descent into savagery and their rejection of reason and order. The theft of Piggy's specs also represents the loss of insight and foresight within the group, leading to further chaos and violence on the island.

Simon did not join the feast because he was talking to the lord of the flies. This suggests that Simon had a deeper understanding of the situation and was more in touch with the spiritual or supernatural elements on the island. He was able to see the true nature of the lord of the flies and engage in a conversation with it, which the other boys were not aware of or able to do. This sets Simon apart from the rest of the boys and highlights his unique perspective and connection to the island.

The boys kill Simon thinking he is the beast because they are caught up in a frenzy and paranoia. Simon, who often has moments of insight and understanding, had gone to the mountain to confirm that the beast was just a dead parachutist. However, when he returns to the group, they mistake him for the beast in the darkness and brutally attack and kill him. This tragic event highlights the descent into savagery and the loss of their humanity that the boys have undergone.

Piggy does not explore the island because he is portrayed as a more timid and cautious character compared to the other boys. He is often seen as an outsider and is more focused on practical matters and survival rather than the adventurous exploration of the island. This is evident throughout the story as Piggy is more concerned with building shelters and maintaining order, rather than exploring the unknown territories of the island.

Simon discovers that the beast is not a physical creature but rather the darkness and evil that resides within each of the boys. He realizes that the true beast is the fear and savagery that has consumed them, and he tries to convey this message to the others. However, his attempt to free the physical beast from the mountain is misunderstood and he is tragically killed by the other boys.

Roger pushes the rock that ultimately leads to Piggy's death. This is evident from the events in the novel "Lord of the Flies" by William Golding.

This act symbolizes the complete breakdown of civilization and the descent into savagery on the island.
