Blog Post #4

"The shore was fledged with palm trees. These stood or leaned or reclined against the light and their green feathers were a hundread feet up in the air. The ground beneath them was a bank covered with coarse grass, torn everywhere y the upheavals of fallen trees, scattered with decaying coconuts and palm saplings. Behind this was the darkness of the forest proper and the open space of the scar."

This passage depicts the plane crash that landed the boys on their abandon island, it enhances my reading because it references the crash and shows that they're in a place totally uninhabited by humans.

Placed in the worls i live in today, i feel like ralph could adapt to it eventually but it would take him a little time because he's only 12 years old and I am in high school. As for our future, i think that Ralph would conform to how the rest of people are reacting, and try to tone it out and make a false reality for himself. I think that he wouldn't be able to accept what's really happening.
