Read the passage and answer the question. it is likewise most lamentable to think, how in taking negros out of africa, and selling of them here, that which god has joined together men do boldly rend asunder [matt. 19: 6); men from their country, husbands from their wives, parents from their children. how horrible is the uncleanness, mortality, if not murder, that the ships are guilty of that bring great crouds of these miserable men, and women. methinks, when we are bemoaning the barbarous usage of our friends and kinsfolk in africa. it might not be unseasonable to enquire whether we are not culpable in forcing the africans to become slaves amongst our selves. and it may be a question whether all the benefit received by negro slaves, will balance the cash laid out upon them; and for the redemption of our own enslaved friends out of africa. besides all the persons and estates that have perished there. how does sewall appeal to christians in this excerpt? briefly explain your answer.

analyzing characters

respond to the following questions in one paragraph for each. use specific examples from the text to support your responses.

1. there is a set of twins on the island named sam and eric. however, when describing them, golding regularly refers to them as samneric. how does this way of describing the twins relate to their behavior and the way that readers understand their characters? what examples of their behavior readers see that samneric is really the appropriate way to refer to them?

2. as the boys set out to search for the beast, ralph allows jack to lead the way, and he sinks to the back of the pack, " to have escaped responsibility for a time." what does this moment lead you to infer about ralph and about his feelings about being the group’s leader? what does this moment foreshadow?

3. while part of the party searching for the beast, simon realizes that the notion of the beast that the other boys have does not make sense. a beast sitting atop a mountain with claws, a beast who did not leave tracks, could have easily caught the twins. simon has a different picture of the beast: "there rose before his inward sight the picture of a human at once heroic and sick." how does this picture relate to the beast that samneric saw? how does it relate to what simon said earlier about the beast being "only us"?
