Lord of the Flies

In the novel, Lord of the Flies, by William Golding, a plane crash lands on a mysterious island with a group of boys. After they crash, they try to keep themselves from becoming savages. One of the leaders in the novel is Jack Merridew. He is a 12 year-old boy who is willing to dominate anyone or anything in his way. Both Adolf Hitler and Jack Merridew were dictators.

Both Jack and Hitler stole power from elected leaders. On the page “loc.gov”,”Hitler and the Nazi regimented limited free speech by getting the federal administrate court to agree.”(1). Hitler benefited because no one stood up to him. Golding writes “I painted my face, I stole up, now you eat all of you” (2). All of the kids started to leave Ralph to go with Jack because Jack would feed them and let them do whatever they wanted. Both Jack and Hitler stole power from an elected leader to have people on their side.

Jack and Hitler would use violence to gain followers. On the page “quora.com”, it states that “Hitler kept control by using terror to arrest people.”(3). He would throw people in jail for no reason which scared people. Golding writes, “They made us…they hurt us” (2). Sam and Erick got tortured and started following Jack because they didn’t want to keep getting hurt. Both Jack and Hitler used violence to get what they wanted.

Jack and Hitler used resources to manipulate people. On the page “quora.com”, it states

that “life in Germany was miserable and starved out” (4). Hitler convinced citizens to work and prepare for war but the citizens didn’t want to but they did and would give Hitler everything. Hitler convinced his people to surrender their resources. This allowed him to control the people and lead them in to war. Golding writes “who wants to join my tribe” (2). Jack took Ralphs power and then convinced the boys to go along with his plans. By giving them food and false security Jack had access to everything the boys had. Both Hitler and Jack had people follow them and there people would give them everything. These resources that were given to both Jack and Hitler were used to start wars.

Both Jack and Hitler are both dictators. They would manipulate, use different resources, hurt people, take power, and use violence to become leader and take control. They were both strong leaders but unfair to their people. Jack used violence to become a leader and gain control. Hitler manipulated people to become a leader and gain power. They both did anything to become leader and take power.

Favorite Memory

My Best Memory On a Saturday morning at 6:00 my dad had came to my room to wake me up. He had told me to get up and get ready because we were gonna go out with the family and some friends that were like family to us. When I had got up from bed I had put on some blue shorts and a black shirt with some black nikes. Then when I was done getting ready I had came out of my room and my sisters were going back and forth trying to get ready and find shorts. So when I passed them getting ready my mom had made some breakfast and it smelled really good. My mom had made egg with tortilla which I ate and tasted really good with a side of orange juice. When my family and I were done eating we got our extra clothes invade we got wet and put them in the in the car but by the the time I stepped out of my house it was burning hot like 90 degrees. I couldn't feel it in my house because my house is always normally cold. When I was outside though I felt like if I was melting or just on fire so I quickly got in my car. When we had all got in the car my dad had told us that we were going to Yosemite and we're all excited and happy with it. We had took two cars my family and on the other car our friends/family were in it. We were already on our way on the freeway when it was 8:00. It was really fun because I've never seen such awesome views on the way there. It had took us about five hours to get there because we had gotten there at 1:00 but before we had gotten there my dad had took all of us up a hill where you can see everything you would be able to see the falls from there because we weren't so far from Yosemite but it was a birds eye view. You would be able to see different types of birds fly through big green trees and lots more. When we were done there we were like 10min away from Yosemite. So when we drove there we all got off the car and it was really cool you can feel and smell the fresh breeze of the trees and hear the waterfall. When we started walking we went straight to the waterfall and every time we would walk closer you would hear the waterfall getting louder and louder and fell the water sprinkle on you like if it was started to rain. There was some rocks close to the waterfall that you can get on that were in the waterfall and me my and our friend got on them and came off them super wet but it felt really good. After we were done I got some rocks, put my face in the water and took them home. We were there for like 5 good hours but over all it was one of the best and fun days ever.

China

 
China 
     I knew that China had one of the biggest population. I also knew that almost a lot of things we have come from China. I know now that China does have one of the largest populations. No I wouldn't I wouldn't want to visit China because it would be really crowded over there and feel different. It would also feel weird by like not knowing there language.
 
      I think the Prezi idea was alright. I probably wouldn't want to try it. It worked alright with my power point. Easybib wasn't working that good. I could have done it a little different by putting more ideas in my power point.

                 Before the world went dark, everything was going well. People were happy, kids were playing, and everything was going all good. Then everybody started going crazy. People were running for there lifes when they saw monsters coming for them. They were eating and killing the people. The monsters started to climb up every single building and call to the evil gods it was time to end planet Earth and transport there planet called Zibertron.
            So then the evil gods came through a portal through the sky and started turning people into monsters for there world. The monsters started to setup pillars all around the world to transport Zibertron. But then the leader of the evil gods named Zepedus saw something up in the sky. It was his brother leader of the good gods, and his name was Zupaides god of blue fire. Zupaides came to stop his brother from all the nonsence he was doing but he refused. So then Zupaides had flied as fast as lightning to the main pillar to stop the transport of there world Zibertron.
               Then Zupaides had destroyed the main pillar so the transport had been ruined and then Zepedus was so mad he sent all his evil spirits and monsters to kill him. When the evil spirits had flew up and went down to kill Zupaides the sky had all turned black like if thousands of shadows were coming to you. Zupaides had called all the good gods to help him and through that darkness of evil spirits there was a big bright light bringing down all the evil spirits. They had all gone at war but Zupaides was furious he had lightened with blue fire all over and had gone after Zepedus. Right then the military didn't know what to do so they launched a nuclear bomb to get rid of everything going on.
                 When Zupaides had saw it coming he have had enough power to stop it so he stopped it wall all his strength and had sent it through the portal of where the evil gods came from. When it had hit through everything had like shut down like the spirits and the monsters but then the only one alive was Zepedus. So when Zupaides had turned around he turned around with a mad face going slowly to his brother Zepedus he had a chain in his hand and lit it with his blue fire.
                   Zepedus was scared then and had told him that "he was his brother and cant hurt family" and Zupaides had gotten his blue fired chain and had swinged it and hanged it on his neck and told him with a bold voice that he wasn't his brother and had swinged him back through the portal saying he was going to get his revenge. then Zupaides and the good gods had left Earth never to return again while everybody on Earth hoping never to happen again.
