Title: A wreck and survivors of Plane Y123 found on a tropical pacific island
Type of Text: News Report
Aim: To Retell the Story of the Eventful Survival of the Boys On the Island
My objective of writing this news report is to show the sheer determination to survive amidst challenges the boys encountered after finding themselves stranded on a pacific island without adult supervision. The plot is centered on the boys’ individual innate character and their frantic efforts to survive. Jack and Ralph characters portray the evil and the good of humanity alongside the respective rewards or consequences of each decision we make. The author contextualizes the eventful survival of each of the boys and how their decisions led to death of some of their colleagues. It is interesting to see how the author further highlighted several themes of man and nature, the nature of evil, civilization using a group of young boys. The news report is told from an adult perspective on the tragic events on the island highlighting the various themes featured in the novel. A news report is apt in highlighting these themes and retelling the story from an adults’ perspective of the chilling encounters endured by the boys.
