Question

PLEASE ANSWER!!
Read the following passage from Chapter 4 of Golding's Lord of the Flies.
"They suffered untold terrors in the dark and huddled together for comfort. Apart from food and
sleep, they found time for play, aimless and trivial, in the white sand by the bright water. They cried
for their mothers much less often than might have been expected; they were very brown, and filthily
dirty."
What characters are represented in this passage?
1. Parents
2. Leaders
3. Biguns
4. Littluns

Answer 1

Answer: 4. Littluns

The proof of this is at the sentence at the top of the paragraph that contains the passage your teacher gave you. The sentence I'm referring to is this:

The smaller boys were known now by the generic title of “littluns.”

Then later on in that same paragraph is when your passage shows up. So effectively much of that paragraph is talking about littluns
