Ralph shouts "Wacco!" while standing on his head in "Lord of the Flies." This moment is a demonstration of his playful side and desire to maintain a sense of humanity and normalcy amidst the chaos on the island.
"The" is the definite article

chapter 7
In chapter 5: Beast from Water Ralph tries to put a stop to some things which he feels are going wrong with the boys' society on the island. He reminded the boys that they all agreed to use certain rocks, which were swept clean by the sea, as a toilet but chastised them because some of them were using the area of the fruits as a toilet, which was unhygienic. He also told the boys off for allowing the fire to go out, reminding them that it was their only hope of being rescued. Ralph also unsuccessfully attempts to convince the boys that there is no such thing as a beast. Ralph is essentially frustrated with them all because they fail to grasp the importance of carrying through their own decisions. He feels that they are allowing temporary and unimportant issues to stand in the way of what really matters, which is getting rescued.
In the novel Lord of the Flies, by William Golding, Ralph symbolizes orderly, law-governed society. From the first chapter of the novel when Ralph discovers, identifies and retrieves the conch, his character remains closely associated with the conch, which he uses to call the meetings on the platform and which also confers authority on the boys to speak in turn at the meetings. Ralph becomes the boys' elected leader, a role which requires him to make the laws. He also attempts to maintain order and enforce the rules. As the story progresses, however, Ralph loses authority and eventually gives up trying to enforce rules. As Jack's power rises and Ralph's declines, orderly society is replaced by savagery and chaos.

At the end of chapter 5: Beast from Water Piggy told Ralph how he felt about Jack, I quote... "He hates me. I dunno why. If he could do what he wanted--- you're alright, he respects you. Besides-- you'd hit him." Piggy also said... "I tell you what. He hates you too, Ralph---" And... "He can't hurt you: but if you stand out of the way he'd hurt the next thing. And that's me."
