What can readers infer when the lord of the flies says, "fancy thinking the beast was something you could hunt and kill"?

a. the beast is something that exists within the boys.
b. the beast is jack.
c. the beast is the dead parachutist on top of the mountain.
d. the beast is a large animal that comes from the sea.

A. The Beast is something that exists within the boys.

The Beast represents the boys immaturity and the certain doom that will follow them throughout their stay at the island. It represents their fears, their quarrels, their wars, and eventually the death that will commence.

Hope this helps!

answer; the above statement is (false);

    racial conflict and discrimination has existed ever since man learned to kill with rocks and bones. these conflicts arose from disputes between territory, power, wealth, religion, or simple difference. some of the most infamous racial disputes include slavery, the holocaust, and the civil rights movement.

    these listed disputes often resulted in casualties from all sides. riots, wars, imprisonment, and lynching are all commonly associated with racial conflict on severe levels.

      however, racism is an improving issue in recent decades. people are being more accepting and welcoming of diverse populations. though, the world isn't perfect and it will take much more time, if ever, until the world is rid of racism.
