Imagine you are writing a script about your favorite childhood memory. In the space below, write 5-7 lines of character
dialogue that utilize one example of a literary technique (e. g., hyperbole, foreshadowing, or simile).

Background Context: I spent the night at my friend's house just to spend time with my boyfriend, but I told my mom I was at my female friend's house when in actuality I was going to a guy's house to spend the night. My boyfriend and his brother got in trouble for not answering their phones when the phones were dead and charging so their dad went to pick them up and I decided to go home afterwards.

Boy 1: "My dad is on his way to pick my brother and I up. He doesn't know your here, nor do your parents. After I leave, you need to go home."

Girl: "I know, I know. Be careful, don't let your dad see me, or find out that I spent the night, after your brother and you leave, Boy 3 and I will walk to my place."

Boy 2: "Dad is here, Boy 1, lets go before he gets mad."

Boy 1: "I'm coming. Girl, be safe, its almost dark and I don't want you to get hurt or taken by some stranger. Boy 3, make sure she gets home safe, and make sure her mom doesn't know about this."

Boy 3" I will and I promise to watch her as we walk to her home, they will never find out"

*Boy 1 and 2 leave. 10 minutes pass and Girl and Boy 3 leave to Girl's home*

Boy 3: "So what would happen if your mother found out you lied about going to your friends house, when you really spent the night at my house just to spend time with Boy 1?"

Girl: "She would kill me if she found out! I would be grounded for life and would be locked up in my room until the day I die"

Boy 3: "So she would punish you, ground you for a few months and not let you go to any friend's house until you move out?"

Girl: "Precisely"

Boy 3: "Well, then lets get you home before she gets back from work"

Girl: "Race ya."

Boy 3: "You're on!"

analyzing characters

respond to the following questions in one paragraph for each. use specific examples from the text to support your responses.

1. there is a set of twins on the island named sam and eric. however, when describing them, golding regularly refers to them as samneric. how does this way of describing the twins relate to their behavior and the way that readers understand their characters? what examples of their behavior readers see that samneric is really the appropriate way to refer to them?

2. as the boys set out to search for the beast, ralph allows jack to lead the way, and he sinks to the back of the pack, " to have escaped responsibility for a time." what does this moment lead you to infer about ralph and about his feelings about being the group’s leader? what does this moment foreshadow?

3. while part of the party searching for the beast, simon realizes that the notion of the beast that the other boys have does not make sense. a beast sitting atop a mountain with claws, a beast who did not leave tracks, could have easily caught the twins. simon has a different picture of the beast: "there rose before his inward sight the picture of a human at once heroic and sick." how does this picture relate to the beast that samneric saw? how does it relate to what simon said earlier about the beast being "only us"?
