... The novel is written in the first person point of view. It is written in Ponyboy's view. We only get the opinion and view of Ponyboy and his gang. We don't get the opinion or side of the other gang. 5. The statement "the greasers and socs are more alike than different" means that each of them are gangs. Each of the gangs are after the same things. They are after power and protection. They all want to make a name for themselves. 6. Johnnie's mother reacts so strongly because she is scared that her son is finally dead. She feels that they have done so much for him and he is still in the gang.

... society on American soil. Each colonist was in turn given 500 acres for their trouble. 150 persons intended to start the voyage to America in the spring but because of financial troubles only 118 were finally able to set sail. The voyage was an unhappy one because White and his chief pilot, Simon Fernandes, spent a majority of the time quarreling. Fernandes was a suspected of wanting to steal the Spanish ships, but White interfered with his plans and the ship arrived safely at Hatarask Inlet on July 22, 1587. Fernandes was not finished yet, he left the settlers on the island and did not go on the Chesapeake Bay as the arrangements stated. This di ...
... those personal qualities of Brutus which represent his fundamental weaknesses. Antony then comes to the Capitol where he further flatters the conspirators by shaking their hands and saying, “Friends am I with you all, and love you all...” (III i 220). This act symbolizes that Antony has made a new friendship with the conspirators, but in reality, he is plotting to seek revenge so he can take over Rome. Antony is also able to flatter the vast angry crowd in order to get his way. He is first able to get the crowd to feel sorry for him. This feeling is evident when the second plebeian says, “Poor soul, his eyes are red as fire with weep ...
... extreme courage in the face of danger and neither shied from doing what was necessary to complete their quest. Both men were also very modest and were able to except help when needed, either form gods or from other mortals. Jason did not hesitate to ask for help from the princess Medea. Odysseus accepted help from a simple sheep herder in order to reclaim his home. Although these two heroes had similar adventures and shared similar qualities, they were very different. The first difference we notice between these two heroes is their lineage. Like most Greek heroes, Jason was a direct descendant of the gods. Odysseus on the other hand was not. He was a member o ...
... Minitruth. To enforce these laws, Big Brother uses many means, the first and foremost of these being the Thought Police, a corps of law officers who monitor the populace through undercover agents, infinite amounts of surveillance cameras and hidden microphones, and a two-way television screen that can be turned down, but never off. A new language is also being introduced to retard thought: Newspeak. This new English dialect uses shortened and compacted forms of modern day words that subconsciously facilitate the assimilation of misinformation through the omission of instances such as “science”, “freedom”, and “religion.” This, obviously, is a very b ...
... That's either a sign of aging or worrying too much about her son dying. The brother has been married for ten months. Akiko reminds her brother of the misery and pain he will put his wife and mother through if he dies, and how it will be hard for them to continue life without him. I think the reason the brother wants to go and fight in the war is because he wants to be remembered as a great fighter of a war. Like in line 22, it says, "In death is your glory," the brother knows the consequences of going off to war. I think the brother sees it as the thing to do for his country, and the sister sees it as just suicide. She even says in lines 18 - 20, t ...
... As they grow through the seasons in lines nine, ten, and eleven, they pass on into adulthood. They in essence no longer exist in the poem. The bells ringing might have something to do with them becoming adults, since I do not see them relating to any other parts of the poem. The bells seem to be an important part of the town since they are mentioned in the second line of the poem and those exact lines are repeated in line twenty-four, sixth stanza of the poem. The bells are related to the children and their death, because they only ring when the children are mentioned. The portion of line two which states "many bells down", is possibly referring to the death of ...
... newspaper, excelled in football and boxing, and ran away from home twice. Upon his graduation, seventeen year old Hemingway headed to Kansas City to enlist in World War I, in outright defiance of his parents objections. However the army rejected Hemingway, despite his repeated efforts, due to permanent eye damage incurred from his years of boxing. Yielding finally to the army's rejections, he added a year to his age and was hired as a reporter for the Kansas City Star, a national newspaper. While working at the Star, Hemingway continued his efforts to participate in the war, and finally succeeded when he joined a volunteer Red Cross ambulance unit as a driver. ...
... has convinced herself that she has. It is hard to see when a person has gone to "far", because who is to say what too far is, because who knows what the perfect weight is. For that matter,perhaps there is no perfect weight. When a person gets too thin, though, it is not simply enough to tell her that she needs to eat, she knows that she is getting to thin, but she has starved her body for so long that her brain is telling her that she does not want to eat and that food isn't good for her. In this day and age when no one in Canada should go hungry, let alone purposely starve herself, society is totally to blame. Models and celebrities are p ...
