What is taken short in the Lord of the Flies chapter 5?
Apparently "taken short" is a British term for having to use the bathroom when you don't have facilities around. Based on several searches I done, in Lord of the Flies, it refers to having diarrhea. (They told the Littluns not to pick fruit if they are "taken short" because it's dirty.) While some of the boys do apparently suffer from diarrhoea (from eating unripe fruit) "taken short" is just a generalised term for needing to urinate or defecate when you are unable to reach a toilet. I think that the reference to being taken short was to remind the littleuns not to urinate or defecate near the fruit trees or water source as it was "dirty."

What does the butterfly represent from the Lord of the Flies?
Butterflies can make nature seemingly innocent, in the book "The Lord of the Flies", William Golding shows how butterflies play a critical yet subtle role. In our society butterflies can show beauty to nature and can represent the short cycle of life that is experienced. On page 151 it says ""Even the butterflies deserted the open space where this obscene thing grinned and dripped." Golding shows us that even the innocent beauty of butterflies flee its evil surroundings. In chapter 3, "Nothing moved but a pair of gaudy butterflies that danced round each other in the hot air." These butterflies symbolize something that is not in common with the pig head but symbolize the immortal soul.
What kind of movie is haunting hour?
It is based on the little chapter book that's really short and not scary at all the haunting hour. Its not a good movie and the books are really dumb. Look I'm sorry but they try really hard to make it scary and then its just not scary anymore
