First Section ? ?Interesting / Valuable Quotes? Chapter 2 page 18: ?A fire! Make a fire!? At once half the boys were on their feet. Jack clamored among them, the conch forgotten. The boys are longing to be saved and to get off the island. They would do whatever to get help. When the idea of the fire as a signal for passing by ships to notice them was suggested, they got energetic and were eager to build the fire on top of the mountain.

FRQ Annie Hawkins p. 1 The 1950s in the US is a time that has been painted over with images of the American dream and disguised in nostalgia as a time when everyone fit the roles that society gave to them- the docile and hardworking housewife, the obedient children, the happy businessman husband, all of them white, content, and living in a carbon copied house with a white picket fence. This, however, was not the case with everyone living in America by a long shot. At the time, there were a great number of groups of people working against the generally accepted values and roles of the times, two of the larger of which were the youth and civil rights activists.

Sam Walters Period 4 Old Man (at pub) ? (indirect characterization) bent but active old man, has a prawn-like mustache. As Winston is walking through the prole district, he sees an old man walk into a pub and decides to follow him and ask him some questions to figure out if life is actually better now than it was in the past, but the old man?s memory has failed him, and Winston doesn?t obtain a single clue to what life was like in the past. The old man symbolizes that the past has disintegrated and any and all efforts to recover it are gone. Winston makes the statement that the past is left to the proles, who will only forget it.
