B. Ralph takes part in the chaotic activity
C. Simon struggles away from the mob and falls off the cliff to the sand below
D. The parachutist blows away in the storm
The novel is The Lord of the Flies

Answer:

This is so much fun...

Simon awakens and finds the air dark and humid with an approaching storm. His nose is bleeding, and he staggers toward the mountain in a daze. He crawls up the hill and, in the failing light, sees the dead pilot with his flapping parachute. Watching the parachute rise and fall with the wind, Simon realizes that the boys have mistaken this harmless object for the deadly beast that has plunged their entire group into chaos. When Simon sees the corpse of the parachutist, he begins to vomit. When he is finished, he untangles the parachute lines, freeing the parachute from the rocks. Anxious to prove to the group that the beast is not real after all, Simon stumbles toward the distant light of the fire at Jack’s feast to tell the other boys what he has seen.

Piggy and Ralph go to the feast with the hopes that they will be able to keep some control over events. At the feast, the boys are laughing and eating the roasted pig. Jack sits like a king on a throne, his face painted like a savage, languidly issuing commands, and waited on by boys acting as his servants. After the large meal, Jack extends an invitation to all of Ralph’s followers to join his tribe. Most of them accept, despite Ralph’s attempts to dissuade them. As it starts to rain, Ralph asks Jack how he plans to weather the storm considering he has not built any shelters. In response, Jack orders his tribe to do its wild hunting dance.

Chanting and dancing in several separate circles along the beach, the boys are caught up in a kind of frenzy. Even Ralph and Piggy, swept away by the excitement, dance on the fringes of the group. The boys again reenact the hunting of the pig and reach a high pitch of frenzied energy as they chant and dance. Suddenly, the boys see a shadowy figure creep out of the forest—it is Simon. In their wild state, however, the boys do not recognize him. Shouting that he is the beast, the boys descend upon Simon and start to tear him apart with their bare hands and teeth. Simon tries desperately to explain what has happened and to remind them of who he is, but he trips and plunges over the rocks onto the beach. The boys fall on him violently and kill him.

The storm explodes over the island. In the whipping rain, the boys run for shelter. Howling wind and waves wash Simon’s mangled corpse into the ocean, where it drifts away, surrounded by glowing fish. At the same time, the wind blows the body of the parachutist off the side of the mountain and onto the beach, sending the boys screaming into the darkness.

Explanation:

a sense, Simon’s murder is an almost inevitable outcome of his encounter with the Lord of the Flies in Chapter 8. During the confrontation in the previous chapter, the Lord of the Flies foreshadows Simon’s death by promising to have some “fun” with him. Although Simon’s vision teaches him that the beast exists inside all human beings, his confrontation with the beast is not complete until he comes face-to-face with the beast that exists within the other boys. Indeed, when the boys kill Simon, they are acting on the savage instinct that the beast represents. Additionally, the manner of Simon’s death continues the parallels between Simon and Jesus: both die sacrificial deaths after learning profound truths about human morality. But Simon’s death differs from Jesus’ in ways that complicate the idea that Simon is simply a Christ figure. Although Jesus and Simon both die sacrificial deaths, Jesus was killed for his beliefs, whereas Simon is killed because of the other boys’ delusions. Jesus died after conveying his message to the world, whereas Simon dies before he is able to speak to the boys. In the biblical tradition, Jesus dies to alleviate the burden of mankind’s sin; Simon’s death, on the other hand, simply intensifies the burden of sin pressing down upon the island. According to the Bible, Jesus’ death shows others the way to salvation; Simon’s death exemplifies the power of evil within the human soul.

Answer is C.

The parachutist blows away in the storm The novel is The Lord of the Flies is not true. Hence, option D is correct.

When Simon wakes up, he notices that a storm is coming and that the air is gloomy and muggy. He stumbles in a trance toward the mountain while his nose is bleeding. As he scrambles up the hill, he spots the deceased pilot's billowing parachute in the waning light.

Simon notices that the guys mistook the parachute, which rises and falls with the wind, for the deadly beast that has caused pandemonium across their entire group. Simon starts to throw up when he sees the parachutist's body.

Upon completion, he untangles the parachute lines to release the parachute from the rocks. Simon stumbles toward the far light of the fire, eager to show the group that the beast is not real after all.

Thus, option D is correct.

Reread the paragraph, then answer the question.

Coit Tower is one of San Francisco’s most interesting and best kept secrets. Since its completion in 1933, this tower on a hill has stood out from the San Francisco skyline. The tower was originally constructed as a memorial to Lillie Hitchcock Coit, a wealthy San Francisco resident who was well known for dressing like a man at a time when such things were frowned upon. In 1934, during the Great Depression, the federal government’s Works Progress Administration paid artists to paint murals on the walls of the tower. Many of those murals depict scenes of California life. Today, the tower is visited by only about 200,000 visitors a year, in contrast to the nearly 12 million visitors a year who flock to Fisherman’s Wharf. This makes Coit Tower an excellent spot to experience San Francisco’s charm while avoiding the commercial hustle and bustle of the big city.
