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..

What does Simon try to tell the boys?

Simon wants to tell the other boys that 'the beast' on top of the mountain is not an animal with teeth, claws and wngs but simply the dead body of an airman wearing a parachute


What are Ralph and Simon doing in the beginning of chapter 3 in Lord of the Flies?

Ralph and Simon were attempting to build a third shelter on the beach. Ralph was standing outside it placing branches and leaves onto it, while Simon was inside trying to arrange the branches.


What does the Lord of the Flies tell Simon they are going to do to the island?

During Simon's internatised conversation with the evil within himself, the 'Lord of the Flies' says a number of things. It tells Simon, "You know perfectly well you'll only meet me down there--so don't try to escape!" It also Tells Simon, that "We are gong to have fun on this island." He is also warned not to 'try it on' or "We shall do you."


In Lord of the Flies when does Simon demonstrate bravery?

he doesn't necessarily pertain bravery but when he finds out the truth about the LORD OF THE FLIES and that the monster is really inside themselves (fear, the other savage boys) then he flees to tell truth to the boys. that in itself could show the ugly truth and how Simon was brave to even think about mentioning it and results in being killd.


What happened in the second chapter of Lord of the Flies?

Chapter two establishes that the boys are alone on a previously uninhabited island with no adults. The first signs of Ralph and Jack's differing objectives are revealed and the subject of the "snake-thing/beastie" is raised for the first time by a small boy with a mulberry-coloured birthmark. Ralph tells the boys that they should build a signal fire to attract passing ships and airplanes so that they can be rescued. Jack, who initially seemed only interested in hunting pigs, then leads the boys off to the mountain, already subtley challenging Ralph's leadership. At the end of chapter two the intended signal fire becomes an out of control inferno and the boy with the mulberry-coloured birthmark is never seen again. These events perhaps foreshadow the burning of the island in chapter 12 and the deaths of Simon and Piggy.
