Power of one

In the movie The Power of One the English were in control of the Africans. The English had all the power becasue they had money, an army, and strong healthy men and women. The British kept control by beating the Africans and sending them to jail. This setup stays the same for a lot of the movie becasue the Africans have no schools and not much else until a young man helps them by teaching them English. Though in Lord
of the Flies it is almost the exact opposite with the group starting out as a whole then slowly breaking off into groups.One of thse groups got followers by using fun and no rules to coax the little kids into it.The other used a conch and many rules to keep everything in order. Both ways lost power because each had little knowledge of what they were doing and had little to no strength making it almost impossible to survive.

LOTF passage 5

In this passage the conch is the main symbol. It stand for both order and how people can be told what to do for only a short amount of time before everything erupts into chaos. In the passage Golding writes "Hear him! He's got the conch!" Showing that they obey what the conch stands for but also in the same passage he writes "Shut up, you fat slug!" to Piggy because Jack is not pleased with Piggy's ideas and plans.

The theme of this passage was order and the way all humans will want all the power and abuse it if given the chance too.

LOTF passage 1

Throughout the first passage Goldings uses words with TH in almost every sentence. This technique helps the reader move from place to place in the passage without actually singling out any one character. This makes the passage much more suspenseful and puts the reader on the edge of their seat as you figure out what will happen at the end of this scene. With the use of the TH Goldings was also able to make the scene full of adjectives and only add to the description Goldings has put into this book. When Goldings uses the TH in this passage it sets you up for later on in the book because Goldings likes to you TH words to get his point across using the most descriptive words possible.
