Item 8 Read this excerpt from Lord of the Flies.

Ralph moved impatiently. The trouble was, if you were a chief you had to think, you had to be wise. And then the occasion slipped by so that you had to grab at a decision. This made you think; because thought was a valuable thing, that got results.

Only, decided Ralph as he faced the chief's seat, I can't think. Not like Piggy.

Once more that evening Ralph had to adjust his values. Piggy could think.

What does this excerpt reveal?

Ralph is jealous of Piggy by revealing Ralph's inner thoughts.

Leaders are formed through hard work and Ralph struggles to grow into his leadership role.

Ralph is incapable of being a good leader because he has doubts about his own abilities.

Piggy is most capable of leading the group, and even Ralph understands this fact.

i think the answer is A

answer: this is easy, i found "it"

i will repeat the question again, "find it."

21 balloons is the story of professor william sherman's travels.

in 1883, he set off from san francisco for a balloon ride over the pacific and was found a month later floating with 21 balloons in the atlantic ocean. this seemed an astounding feat and everyone wanted to know what had happened.    

professor sherman was loyal, however, and said he would tell his tale first to the western american explorers club in san francisco, of which he was a member. this built up suspense for several chapters before he began to tell of the wonders of his adventures and the amazing island of krakatoa, an island which had just been blown up by a volcano.  

the residents of krakatoa are all millionaires who live under a "gourmet government" of their own devising. we get to see all the incredible adventures that creative people with unlimited resources would create according to the author.
