He now tells Larry’s parents that if they have a problem with whatever his son does, they can leave with their son, which they actually end up doing. On their way home Morton and his wife gets into a fight, because Morton chickened out and went home, instead of confronting the man properly; which could end up in a physical fight, which they both know Morton would not win. It is obvious that Morton, Larry and the mother/wife and the “heavy” father and son is from different social classes.
Lord of the Flies Paper Assignment In Lord of the Flies, William Golding uses many symbols to explain the way he feels about humanity as a whole. One example of this is the conch shell that Ralph and Piggy discover on the beach, realizing that it can be used as a horn to summon the other boys from the crash.

The foamy white waves were overwhelming and fascinating. I felt so proud when I finally conquered the skill of standing up on the surfing board. The smell of the sea and the sight of the crystal blue waters were just surreal. The atmosphere and scenery in Hawaii was defiantly once of the most memorable aspects of my visit. The bright green palm trees were everywhere, making my trip feel so real although I felt like I was in a dream my whole experience was so amazing.
The smooth, warm, sandy beaches are always a sight to see. While walking down the beach, you'll see thousands of different sea shells. Some are big, some are small, some are just so pretty you have to take them home. You have to be careful, not to step on one because it's painful; especially if you're bare-footed.
