In chapter 8 of lord of the flies as Ralph considers the need to reassign fire keepers what does he realize?
In chapter 8 of "Lord of the Flies," Ralph considers the need to reassign fire keepers and realizes that the other boys do not really understand the importance of the fire. He realizes that no matter how he tries to explain it, they will be more concerned with Jack's hunting group.
What was Ralph's reaction when Piggy suggested letting the signal fire go out?
In Chapter 10, Piggy suggests that they let the fire go out at night and relight it every morning because he concludes that the smoke will not be visible at night. At this point, Ralph is frustrated that Jack has started his own tribe. Ralph is also discouraged that only he and Piggy seem intent on keeping the fire going. Upon hearing Piggy's suggestion, Ralph agrees to let the fire go out. However, Ralph thinks it would be ideal to have the fire going all the time. The fire also gives Ralph a sense of security, especially at night: Ralph stood up, feeling curiously defenseless with the darkness pressing in.
Why does jack leave the group in chapter 8?
The first thing that the boys decide to do, after Jack has left, is to follow Piggy's suggestion to light a fire near to the shelters since the presence of the 'beast' is preventing them from relighting the fire on the mountain top.
In chapter 2 of Lord of the Flies what is the shameful knowledge and how is confession made?
In Chapter 2: Fire on the Mountain the 'shameful knowledge' is the realisation that after they had spent much of their energy building a huge bonfire they had no way of lighting it. Ralph initially avoided making any confession by enquiring of Jack, "Will you... Will you light the fire?" To which Jack managed a mumbled reply about rubbing sticks together and then, to quote from the book... He glanced at Ralph, who blurted out the last confession of incompetence. "Has anyone got any matches?"
Who said the quote id like to put on war paint and be a savage but you must keep the fire burning in the lord of the flies chapter 8?
