What does Simon try to tell the boys in chapter 9?
This is found in Chapter 8 of Lord of the Flies. Simon tells everyone that they need to go climb the mountain. He is saying this in response to the discussion by blowing the conch..
Ralph complains that nobody is helping to build the shelters what does Simon suggest that Ralph do about it?
Simon suggests that Ralph should hold another meeting to tell the little-uns (little boys) Pg.51
Simons death in Lord of the Flies?
Yes he was. He had just found out that the beast lives within and was going to tell all the boys. But the boys were having a feast and partying. When he comes out of the jungle, the boys think he is the beast and stab him to death, everyone takes part. The next day everyone realizes it is Simon; yet no one will admit it was. :)
What news did Simon want to tell the others?
-spoiler warning- He realized that the beast is real, but it's the savagery within us, as shown by, "Maybe there is a beast...what I mean is...maybe it's only us."(pg.89). Then, in chapter nine, Simon tries to tell the boys that the beast that Sam'n'eric had seen was just a dead parachuter before being murdered.
What is Simon trying to do when the boys kill him?
He's trying to tell the others that he found the beast, but ends up being mistaken for it in the dark and they kill him on accident
