Answer:
1. The climax of the story is when John moved out from the civilization to the light house to live alone. He grew his own vegetables and made he own weapons. One day when he was finished whittling the stave into shape, he caught himself sing. He had promised himself to stay away from outside world. So he felt guilty and start punishing himself by whipping his own flesh. During his whipping, there were 3 Delta-Minus land-workers pass by and watch the whole sense. They were amazed and got excited, so they reported back to the city and more people came to watch. After one of the reporters recorded his second time whipping, a whole crowd of people came from helicopters to watch John whip himself. The whole crowd yelled "we want the whip!" over and over again. Until he saw Lenina got off from the helicopter he called her a strumpet and started to whip Lenina, because he thought Lenina made him to sin. The crowd were excited to see flesh flying around and blood everywhere. When it was midnight, John woke up remembering what he has done. He could take it and the next day the arrivals found John has hanged himself.

2. The social commentary of this book is when people wanted happiness they would anything to get it. They would eliminate anything that gets in our way to our happiness. We would give up our rights, freedom, and even our closest family to get what we want.

3. The book Brave New World was a very interesting book. I would never really imagine our world would turn out to be like this, so it was quite shocking. Some parts of the story was also pretty breath taking. Such as the last part of the chapter 18 when John killed Lenina and the whole crowd were cheering for it. Over all the book was little bit boring but some parts were interesting.
