  1. 1)Describe the setting.

    The boys stucked on the uninhabited island. They divieded in two groups. There is huge conflict between two groups.

    2)Describe two of the characters.

    Ralph was leader of all boys at first, but after boys divided in two groups, he lost his member and he harassed by Jack. He has good leadership. He believed that they must to be rescued. He is so smart that he knows what the boys have do to get out the island ,and do his best to get out the island. He tries to observe human rationality.


    Jack showed a favorable attitude to Ralph at first, but he doesn't want to someone controlling him, so he made new group for hunting. He acted like savage. He wants to do something by instinct. He incited fear to other boys.

    While Ralph became leader by leadrship, Jack became leader by fear.


    3)What do you think about this movie?

    I don't like this movie. First, I hate movie which has scene of murder. In the movie , The boys did cruel things then, I don't like it.
    I think that ' There are only children, not adults ' means human nature. Jack and his group acted like savage and they showed violence. I think human nature is so brutal like their action.

    Simon who tries to tell the truth, Piggy who is a highly intelligent child, and Ralph who tries to observe human rationality, these three boys threated by other boys. The right person attacked by others. It's not just a movie scene. It is real circumstance in our community. That's reason why I felt uncomfortable about this movie.

    The theme of Lord of the Flies is why everyone should live morally.

    The british boys who stucked on uninhabited island try to govern themselves with disastrous results.

    2)Describe two of the characters.

    When they arrive on the uninhabited island, Ralph becomes the chief of the group by being elected. After, the group diveded in two group by Jack and he's follower
    Ralph has good leadership and Ralph has a tendency to be polite and logical in the tensest of moment.
    Unlike Ralph, Jack represents the irrational nature of the boys, while Ralph represents rationality

    when I read this book before watch this movie, I don't understand a connotative meaning but now I can understand in some degree by watching movie
    I think that this movie has connotative meaning which human nature is revealed by the crisis.

  5. 1.
    The military school student had a airplane accident, so they were stuck in desert island. They become to live in there, and they seek to survive.

    2.
    Ralph is calm, cautious, thoughtful and rational, but he doesn't know how to lead his group.

    Jack is aggressive. He acts like a primitive man. He breaked the rules, and he robbed the stuff that need to go hunting. He attracted other boys by meat, and he eliminated another group.

    3.
    This moive reflects reality of society. Our society was divided two group, and one group trys to dominate another group. In the end, the society order was collapsed, and people who says the truth be killed like Simon.

    I think the monster that was seen by the boys, represents the boys.

    Ralph is a responsible boy. He strives to extricate every members. At first, many members followed him. He assigned a proper role to each member and managed the time. But every member betrayed Ralph and followed Jack over time except Piggy.

    ▶Jack
    Jack is a mischievous boy. At first he was active, but he turned into a selfish, mean and aggressive boy in the end. He made a his tribe, then plundered a knife and Piggy’s glasses. He killed people. After all, he attempted to kill Ralph.

    3. What do you think about this movie?

    I think the message of the movie are a deficiency of the humanity and a savagery of natural man. But I can’t understand this movie well and I felt fear.

  7. 1) Describe the setting.
    'Lord of the Flies' is a movie about English schoolboys isolated on a desert island. The boys' society is divided into two groups because of fear. In the situation, they lose control.

    2) Describe two of the characters.
    Ralph is the main character in this movie. He is the first leader in them so he is called chief. He try to find the best way to escape the island.

    Simon is rational. He doesn't have fear about the beast, which called the Lord of the Flies. He knows the beast's identity first of all but killed by Jack's group.

    3) What do you think about this movie?
    I think that Lord of the Flies means human's hidden fear. This nonexistent fear makes people violent. The reason that Characters' ages are young is for expressing human nature.

  8. 1) One day, The ship was wrecked, children and sailor were trapped in the island which is isolated from the continent. The oldest boy tried to make their own society, but most of the children refused and fought with the other group.
    2) Ralph: He believed that someone will come and save the children.
    He tried to make small society to control the children, but he had not enough power to control the children.
    Jack: At first he also belongs to the Ralph`s society, but he felt it is childish.
    He does not believe that someone will come and save the children. He wanted to act like wild animals.
    3) I thought wildness is the repressed human nature. This wildness can be controlled by human society. I think if there is more powerful person instead of Ralph, children could live in small society.

  9. 1) Describe the setting
    Someday, because of a accident, an adult and children arrived at uninhabited island. But an adult is dead quickly, so children is left in island without any adult, Their situation is left on out of control.

    2) Describe two of character.
    Ralph : He was a leader of boys at first, but boys divided in two groups and he's power has been decreased. He knew the importance of the role, and thinking rational.

    Piggy : He was very pitiful person. He's value was just glasses to make a fire. Similar as Ralph, he was important person at first (because of fire), but after another group had a fire, he was unnecessary to them, so he met with a tragic end.

    3) What do you think about this movie?
    I think this movie's topic is 'necessity of law'. Children don't have any ability to control themselves. Of course, they made a little role, but that role is easy to break. If they has only one adult, children didn't not only murder anyone but also lose their ration. 'Control' is very important.

  10. 1) Describe the setting.
    A flight carrying elementary school students suddenly fell down on the middle of the ocean. They just crash on an isolated island. All of the accidents happen in the island.

    2) Describe two of the characters.
    Ralph : Ralph was an established leader, so he was an elected chief at first. He is a rational person as he always tries to avoid any emotional actions. When he set up the goal that they would keep a fire so that someone can notice them, he tried his best to keep the fire because he thought that was the only hope they can have.
    He is also warm hearted. When Simon was killed, Ralph was under a huge guiltiness.

    Jack :Jack was not very violent at first. He was energetic to hunt a pig. As time goes by he became a leader who has non-humanity. He lost the humanity and applealed his authority. He is an irrational person. He did use violence to keep his status.

    3) What do you think about this movie?

    It showed how the society that has no rules and arrangements would become violent pretty well. I was surprised when they killed Simon and Piggy. I thought what if the writer didn't kill any child.

  12. 1) Describe the setting.
    I think this movie is reasemble Deux ans de vacances of Jules Verne. Because both story start with wrecked boat, and boys from military school are reach in desert island. In the movie ther are devided two group because of difference of views .

    2) Describe two of the characters.
    Ralph : He has leadership and he has positive mind. He takes care his friends.
    He insists boys have to supervise fire.
    Jack : He has negative mind and he likes making fun of boys who have different mind with him. Also he is self-righteous. He insists boys have to take pig.

    3) What do you think about this movie?
    I think this movie is little cruel at some scene though they are young.
    And some boys are too selfish.
    They are teenagers, but they don't have teen's mind.
    I think those are because of conditions.
    I wonder if I were in that situation which part I will join.

  13. 1) Describe the setting.
    This movie start with plane crash.. Children and a sailor who is an adult were left in the island which is isolated from the continent. Ralfph tried to make their own society with rule to live until someone rescue them, but Jack think that nobody rescue us, so we have to adapt to this island.

    2) Describe two of the characters.
    Ralph : He is regular and he think rule is important. On the other hand he is inflexible. He think we have to be rescued so we must try to notice that we are here.
    Jack : He has negative mind so he think they can't be rescued so he choose adapting to the island. He has survivability, but he is dictatorial

    3) What do you think about this movie?
    This movie is a little cruel but I like it because it's cruel and violent scene can describe how children can change terribly.
    In this movie ,I can see when society lose rule and conscience, the society is molder and weak people fall a victim.

    1. 1) Describe the setting.

      Lord of the Flies shows that how are the people in society without laws changed.
      The story is the students who are taking a trip meet with a accident and fall onto island.
      After they divide into 2 groups and the conflicts often occur with each other, because Two man have different thought.


      2) Describe two of the characters.

      Ralph is responsible and considerate and looks after friends.
      he don't like trouble and he is well-mannered.
      But Jack is completely opposite of Ralph.
      Jack is active but he likes goofing on a person, and he is predisposed to violence, so finally the students who were incited by Jack killed their friends.
      Maybe Jack is coward, so he is drove to crazy under fear.


      3) What do you think about this movie?

      After I watched the movie, I can't any word only but vain sigh.
      It is unbelievable story.
      If now the people were in same situation like the movie, the person like Jack will be killed or confined by the righteous people,
      because the present generation knows what is right or wrong. well, If I were in there, I will harm him, or I persaude other students to progress good goal and organize salubrious society with Ralph.
