One of the decision Golding makes while writing the first page is describing Piggy in a way that tells the reader Piggy is very careful and hinks before he acts. He does this by describing the way Piggy dusts himself off after climbing through the jungle. I think he does this because he wats to show the reader tha Piggy is a careful person and thinks before he acts. This could also be an example of foreshadowing that Piggy will be useful later on the island.
One of the other decisions Golding makes is descibing the color and powerful cry of the red and yellow bird. The bird comes a surprise for Ralph, so in a way it might tell the reader that some unexpected events will happen later in the story. The colors of the bird could also be a sybol for fire, and foreshadow that something is going to happen later on with fire. After reading the book, the reader may think back and realize that the cry of the bird could represent Simon's cries as he dies.
