Chapter+6

Beast From Air

1. A figure falls from the sky with a parachute attached to it. This message, to them, is the beast. Sam and Eric run back to Ralph and Piggy and tell them what they saw. We think it could be the dead pilot.

2. Ralph knew that from before, when they had spoken about the beast, fear became more intense. So he didn't want more of that plus he didn't want people to think of him as a bad leader for not taking of the problems. He wanted to prevent any more nightmares that the littluns might have had if he had called an assembly and spoken about the beast.

3. Ralph gets angry about the boys throwing rocks because he keeps pushing the point about sensibility and the possibility of getting rescued. No one seems to ever listen to his ideas about sensibility. We think his anger is justified because pointless things lke throwing rocks won't get you rescued and that should be the objective among the boys.

4. Ralph has become more mature and thought more about getting off the island than having fun and swimming in the lagoon all day like he was doing in the beginning. Also, Ralph is starting to become more questioned because the boys don't want to have to do work.
