1. What 'circumstances' do Ponyboy's teacher refer to? What circumstances does Ponyboy think his teacher is referring to?
I think that the teacher thinks circumstances are him getting judged by the socs because he's a greaser. Pony thinks he's referring to Johnny dying and all the stuff that happend that was in the news paper.
2. Why doesn't Ponyboy feel scared when the socs approach him and he threatens them with a broken bottle (p.170-171)? How is this a dramatic change from the ponyboy we have seen up until this point?
He wasn't scared because he was sick and tired of them picking on them, he was just fed up. This is different from Pony before because he would've never done that before.
3. What does Darry mean when he says, "you don't just stop living because you lose someone" (p.173)?
It means even though you lose someone your life around you does t stop you have to keep going and move on with your life and grieve at the same time.
4. How do we know Sandy didn't love Soda as much as he loved her?
Because Sandy returned Soda's note unread and didn't want to marry soda. She also moved to Florida.
5. Explain how Darry and Ponyboy play tug of war with Soda.
Darry and Ponyboy always fight and then try to get soda to pick a side. Soda feels like they play "tug of war" with him because of this and he doesn't want to pick a side.
6. What do we learn was so special about Johnny (p.178)?
7. What does Ponyboy end up doing for his English assignment?
Ponyboy ends up writing about all the events that have recently happend in his life. Ponyboy wrote the outsiders.
