Act 36 Lord Of The Flies Act 2 Dialectical Journal

Sector 36 “Ow! Crap!” A jolt of electricity had struck Ralph in the neck right where his implant was, it was a routine thing so it wasn’t as much surprising as it was painful. Ralph waited for his instructions from Sector 01 telling him to go back to work, but they never came, so he waited and waited for hours upon end for the instructions thinking there was just a longer delay than usual, but still, they never came. He eventually tired of sitting and waiting and decided to take a stroll as he waited for his instructions to arrive. He traveled down roads he had never seen before and began to see things for the first time even though they were all so close to where he had worked and lived for the past 15 years. For Ralph like all the inhabitants of Sector 36 and the other sectors minus Sector 01 was a creature of habit, his implants told him what to do, where to do it, how to do it efficiently, and when. The implants controlled his life and he was perfectly fine with that. …show more content…

As Ralph took in all the beauty of nature he had never been able to see working in the mines, he noticed a man walking with an expressionless face that no one could possibly force themselves to have if we're living in the same reality Ralph was right now. As Ralph approached the man about to ask what was wrong he noticed that further down the path there were more men and women approaching him with the same look on their faces. Ralph didn’t understand much of what had happened today but he did know this, that emotionless face could only be made because the implants were back in control and they were receiving instructions from Sector 01 while Ralph still wasn’t receiving any

    At the end of William Golding’s Lord of the Flies, the children whose actions were chronicled in the book committed atrocities like murder and torture. Regular children somehow did things worse than anything that they ever could have imagined back at home. This begs the question of what prompted what once were normal children to snap: the circumstances or something that was inside of them all along. The answer in my mind isn’t as simple as one or the other. A winning combination of both spurred average boys into becoming killers, because without something dark being triggered in some of the boys, no one would have even thought about the horrible things that ended up happening.

    In the duration of reading the novel, The Lord of the Flies by William Golding, my collection of dialectical journals reflect on what I learned and understood through important events, small details and characters. First considering the choices I made when reading and completing assignments, I chose passages that are easy to connect to because being an individual of a young spirit and mind similar to the childish survivors, I felt close to the characters’ emotions and actions of ignorance, insecurity, pride and fear. The dialectical journals also influenced my reading of later chapters by expecting an increase of failure than success. Ralph’s continuation of failing to unite the survivors together to create survival resulted in a hopeless

    Paloma Guerrero-Lopez 25 January 2023 Mr. Delgado ELA 9 Lord of The Flies Human nature can be described as humans' first instinct for how they view the world. Such ideas are significant because human characteristics can change very often due to society's surroundings. For instance, in the book Lord of The Flies when the kids first find each other after the plane crash, they are gathered together because of the conch, but this changes fast after Jack believes Ralph isn't a good leader because Ralphs belief is to have a more equal society whereas Jack is more of a powerful and fearful leader. Ralph believes in equality and working together to be able to survive. Ralph is very humble and was a very nice and innocent kid when he first

But today in looking at that boy, for the first time I saw what I had been. I was just like him!” By pushing away the picture of himself, he was trying to forget who he was, he was trying to blend into society. It was almost as if Gordon wanted to forget his origins; his broken self, broken family, uncertain future, bleak past, and most of all, who he was, is and will
