We think the boys wanted lots of rules so they would be very organized. The more rules, the more organized. That reflects the society they came from because in England, everyone is very proper. Everything is organized, and well run.

2. Piggy is basically the servant. He follows Ralph around and does what he tells him to. We think that Piggy wouldn’t have to do that if he stood up for himself a little more. For example, Piggy just lets them take his glasses. If he would’ve stood up for himself he might not of lost them.

3. We think that Ralph didn’t handle it very well. Even if he’s certain there’s no beastie, he should at least comfort the kid and listen to what he has to say. But instead he just ignores him and basically puts him down. We think the boy was seeing an actual big snake.

4. The most important event in the chapter is that they lit the fire. That is important because it allows other ships to see them on the island. Also it’s important to know that it caught the forest on fire. Next, losing the kid is important because it shows that Ralph isn’t doing his job right.

5. Savage means to be violent, cruel, and uncontrolled. The more time they spend away from society the more they will begin to act like animals. They will start to grow restless of eachother and take advantage of not having any supervision or people to tell them what not to do and what to do.
