How do Ralph Jack and Roger react when they finally see the beat?
Ralph, Jack, and Roger are very frightened when they finally see the beast.
Who or what saves Ralph in the end?
Fleeing from Jack and his hunters Ralph stumbled onto the beach, near the shelters, and was confronted by a naval officer. Jack and his hunters also emerged from the jungle a short distance behind Ralph but immediately stopped their pursuit of Ralph on sighting the officer. You might therefore say that the arrival of the officer saved Ralph from Jack and his hunters. However the officer was only there because his ship had sighted the smoke coming from the island. The smoke came from the out of control fire which Jack had lit to try and drive Ralph from his hiding place. So, with typical Golding irony the fire which Jack lit in an effort to kill Ralph proved to be Ralph's salvation.
Why would Ralph not be a good chess player Lord of the flies?
Because Ralph doesn't hide his emotions, he expresses them freely. When he is ecstatically happy he stands on his head and when he is angry he loses his temper. Ralph 'wears his heart on his sleeve' for all to see and they know exactly where they stand with him.
Who climbs the mountain to see the beast and how do they react?
Yes, I have to agree with that about Samneric climbing the Mountain.
Why did the narrator say Ralph would never make a good chess player in the Lord of the Flies?
Because Ralph doesn't hide his emotions, he expresses them freely. When he is ecstatically happy he stands on his head and when he is angry he loses his temper. Ralph 'wears his heart on his sleeve' for all to see and they know exactly where they stand with him.
