The boys continued to journey their way through the island to the mountain, when they all got exhausted they stopped for a break. Ralph then realized that his hair has grown; he has gotten really dirty and very unclean. He wished that he could have a nice shower, cut his hair and cut his long, dirty nails. He got use to this, it felt it was an ordinary thing and is a part of his life now. Remembering the days when he was in England, he gazed at the open sea and thinks of how they will be saved and rescued. Simon looked at Ralph and it looked like Ralph was losing hope, Simon reassured him that at the end of the day, all of them would be rescued.
As they finished having their break, they immediately went back to work to go hunting for some food. They found some wild boar droppings. The boar tries to get away, but with Ralph fast reflexes he threw the spear in his hands to the side of the pig. Ralph felt excitement and felt pride as he had kill wild boar with just a spear. Not long after, Jack is wounded on his left forearm, by the boar's tusks. He revealed his wound to the boys surrounding him. Eventually, as evening fell, the boys continued hiking up the mountain, and Ralph realised that they won't be able to return to the beach till the very next morning. He was very uncomfortable leaving Piggy alone with the littluns, as he was concerned that the "Beastie" might approach them and they would not have a clue it is around. Jack suggest to the boys they should go on, but the boys wanted to go back to their base camp. Jack a person who always disagree with what everyone said, continued on his way up the mountain to look for the beast. Ralph and Roger didn't want to leave him alone and waited for him. Jack he finally arrived at the top, saw the dead pilot and rushed down the mountain. Terrified and exhausted he warned the other and the boys flee down the mountain and charged to their base camp. |
Prediction:
My prediction of the next chapter would be that, some of the boys will sneak out of the base camp, go onto the mountain and investigate the dead parachutist. Finding and solving their unsolved problems. I believe that maybe the boys will try to use the parachutist resources to use as a survival kit, so they can last longer on the island until they get rescued.
Opinion:
In my opinion, this book is started to spook me out and making me wanting to force myself to spoil it out to my friends what is going happen next. I personally believed that they could've add in more detailed, to enable the reader to visualize what is going on in the dense jungle. Due to the fact that, if audience are able to visualize they will get a better understanding of the story and be more intrigued into reading the book further.
