I started shouting at the top of my lungs, “Is anybody still there!” Though I knew I was shouting, I heard nothing, but ringing. After leaving the ship wreck I turned around, and saw the horrific scene that was the boat.

Similarly, in the novel The Lord of the Flies, by William Golding, a group of confused, British boys struggle to determine what’s right and what’s wrong.
