The officer, surrounded by these noises, was moved and a little embarrassed. He turned away to give them time to pull themselves together; and waited, allowing his eyes to rest on the trim cruiser in the distance (Golding & Epstein, p. 202).
From these two sentences, I think it is like our world society. The officer represents to adults and the boys represent to children. Adults often do not care about children's ideas. They do not listen what the children think, but they do care only their thought and think that it is better because they are mature. They do not concern that when they were children the world is not the same as the world in this time; something has changed and the solution for the similar situation also changed.
Sometimes children need help, but they just stay away and look at them from their point without giving their hands because they think that it is just a little things and ridiculous.
