Explanation:

Response
First Question: "Why does Jack want the above?"
Brief Explanations

This question is related to the novel "Lord of the Flies". In the story, Jack's interest in starting fires (for hunting, survival, or asserting power) is a key motivation. The option about calling meetings is more related to Ralph and the conch, sharpening sticks into spears is for hunting but not the main reason for "the above" (likely referring to fire - starting tools or materials), and liking bananas is irrelevant. So the correct option is about starting fires.

Brief Explanations

In "Lord of the Flies", the conch has symbolic power of order. Piggy blowing the conch restores a sense of order and stops the fight. A stone crushing Ralph is incorrect (it happens later and is not related to stopping this fight), and Ralph or Jack spearing each other is not what stops their fight.

Answer:

C. He wants to be able to start fires.

Second Question: "What stops the fight between Ralph and Jack?"
