dreadful nightmare. He got up and smashed the spider. He and his men
were killed in battle.

was an army of brave Scotch-men around him. Another battle was fought,
and the King of England was defeated.
He arose and called his men together. He told them of his plans, and sent
them home with messages to their families that they would never have
need to battle again. He was loved and cherished by his brave Scotch-men
and their families. He lived to be old and wise,

England. When the first lights of day peaked forth, he awakened, dressed
and glanced at the bright new day. But when he saw the spider he shook
his head in disgust that he was so easily heartened.

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"?
