So what happens when Johnny stands up to Dallas, Dallas was messing with two girl socs, named Cherry and Marcia. He was saying some really dirty things to the girls and Johnny stood up for Cherry and Marcia. I do not think it will affect their friendship because in the book on page 24-25 it says “ Johnny was the gang’s pet, if it were anyone else in the group other than Johnny they would be smashed, but Dallas just could not hurt Johnny. No one in the gang could.” And so far in the story where I am at they have been friends. it also says in the story on page 24-25 “ Johnny was Dallas pet too, he was mainly Dallas pet.”
When the three of them get back to the church they realize there’s a fire and a group of kids are trapped in the inside. Without a hesitation Johnny and Ponyboy enter to the church to save the trapped kids and are able to save them but the church collapses, Dally runs to save Ponyboy and Johnny but can’t really help Johnny so he breaks his back and is taken to the hospital, but after some days he dies. With Johnny’s death everyone in the gang gets really sad but no one ever expected Dallas Winston, the toughest of them all to be so affected by it. At the end Dallas cannot handle the loss so he makes a plan to kill himself without him really doing it; he robs a shop so the police would chase him, calls the greasers to go to the parking lot so they could help him but at the parking lot he gets out of his car and takes out his unloaded gun, since the police didn’t know the gun was unloaded they shot him and he dies, in front of the gang.
Jackie is an elite distance runner when no one else in her family has this trait is because she has a different combination of gene versions. Evidence card D states "she ran sprints three days a week, but her sprint times were nit very good, and she never won any races." This evidence supports the claim 2 and refutes claim 1 because even though she did train, she was not very good. Based on the he evidence I could conclude that Jackie's running ability did not have to do with training. Another piece of evidence is on card B, it states that Lincoln has a gene version combination of A1 and A1 which points to the result of Jackie's mother having A1 is one of her gene versions. This is important bad use when you inherit genes from your
In the book The Outsiders, Dallas Winston is a hero, but he is not a typical hero. Robbing stores, getting in fights, and getting drunk is what Dally is usually doing when he is not with the boys. Dally has a bad reputation around the neighbourhood and he is always getting himself into trouble. As if doing all that is not bad enough, being a greaser makes it a whole lot worse. Greasers are the lowest class in Tulsa, Oklahoma. They wear old clothes, wrecked cars, and live in the poor part of town. Although all of that may make one think that he is not a hero, he is a hero. Dallas is not a hero to just anyone, but he is to the people he really cares about and loves. When Dallas Winston really cares about someone he will fight for them until the end. Dallas has lots of courage
In the Podcast, Serial, Jay Wilds is a main character whose alibi and story from episode one to four. The reporter, Sarah Koenig, maps the whole case out for us. Jay has given a minimum of seven different stories about what happened on January thirteenth. Four police interviews, two trial testimonies, and most recently, an interview he gave to the Intercept.
The author writes, “Johnny’s eyes glowed. Dally was proud of him. That was all Johnny had ever wanted” (148). Johnny’s reaction is priceless. Out of the entire greaser gang, Johnny and Dally’s relationship is the strongest and most significant. When Johnny needs Dally the most, he is his staunchest supporter. In return, Johnny gives back the same, if not more, amount of affection to Dally. When Dally and Johnny die, Ponyboy makes a list of realizations. Ponyboy thinks, “But I remembered Dally pulling Johnny through the window of the burning church; Dally giving us his gun, although it could mean jail for him; Dally risking his life for us, trying to keep Johnny out of trouble.” (154). It is clearly proven that ‘tough’ Dallas Winston makes a substantial effort to make Johnny’s life better. If Dally would not make the effort for Johnny, then Johnny would have to experience life worse than it already is. Since Dally thinks of Johnny almost like a little brother, it would hurt Dally to see Johnny experience that kind of pain. Dally and Johnny are bonded by these similarities, but they are also bonded through their differences.
Dallas Winston was a great man. He was there when we needed him. At the age of 14 he moved to Oklahoma, he made some incredible friends, Johnny, Darry, Two-bit, Sodapop, and Steve and I. That’s where he met, and formed our gang, the greasers. Though, Dally was tough, and mean looking, he showed sympathy, and compassion for his fellow gang members, especially Johnny. Dally did everything for us, when our gang thought he was unable to fight at the rumble, he still did because he wanted to help us, he didn’t want to see us lose against the Socs. And have our territory taken.
He treats Johnny Cade a member of the gang like a son. This quote is about Dallas, because he was hardened by spending 16 years on the street. He is very calm when Ponyboy and Johnny tell him how Johnny killed a Soc, which means he has probably dealt with this kind of situation. Another reason it implies to him, because he doesn’t take criticism from anybody. He also steals regularly, and he has a very long record with the police, of which he is proud about.
What if everthing and everyone you loved went away? Life is hard, but luckily you have your loved ones to help you. But what if you didn’t? In the book, The Outsiders, even though many characters impacted each other, Johnny, Ponyboy, and Dally impacted their peers the most throughout the book.
You look out for yourself and nothin' can touch you...” (S.E Hinton) Dallas was committed many crimes and that is the reason he says this quote that he looks out for the gang but mostly Johnny because he cares about him a lot. “It was Darry. He hit me. I don’t know what happened, but I couldn’t take him hollering at me and hitting me too.” (S.E Hinton, 51) Even though the gang is very close they still experience personal violence between them like Johnny's parents and Darry hitting ponyboy, but Darry had to make a lesson of ponyboy for not being smart and safe. “Darry and I would probably still have misunderstandings – we were too different not to – but no more fights. We couldn't do anything to hurt Soda”. (S.E Hinton, 12.57) All of the fighting rumbles and jail time never hurt anybody but until ponyboy ran away because Darry smacked him and that hurt Soda a lot because he loved and really cared about Pony. despite the consequences, they must decide to return
During the incident in page 93 ‘’We dropped the last of the kids out as the front of the church started to crumble. Johnny shoved me towards the window. ’’Get out’’. This sentence in the book changes readers perspective about Johnny before this incident I thought Johnny as weak and highly sensitive character in this book who was always scared but during this time in the book he showed a lot of bravery. In page 178 when Johnny said in the letter ‘’I don’t mind dying now.
War is not known for being easy. It is not known for being painless, or bringing joy to all those involved. Even through the media’s glorification of conflict, most people are still aware of its dire consequences. The movie, Shenandoah, and the book, Johnny Got His Gun, explore the effects of war on the people it directly and indirectly involves, going against the large scale glorification seen in most of the media. Shenandoah, which is set in the Civil War, sets around the Anderson family and their youngest son Boy, who ends up accidently being taken as a Prisoner of War, forcing his family to go after him. Johnny Got His Gun focuses around Joe Bonham, who fought during World War One, and ends up losing all of his limbs, face, hearing, and
Have you ever had two friends that are enemies? In the story, The Outsiders, by S.E. Hinton, Cherry Valance (her real name is Sherri) is a fashionable, fiery, red headed, emotional, understanding, and trustworthy friend. The story took place in the mid 1960’s in Tulsa, OK. Greasers and Socs are two very different, yet same groups, which most definitely do not get along. After Ponyboy and Johnny got jumped, Johnny killed Bob, a Soc who was also Cherry’s boyfriend. During Ponyboy and Johnny’s hiding out in an abandoned church, the church starts on fire, while the children are playing in there. Johnny and Ponyboy somehow made their way back in to save the kids. Johnny and Ponyboy both made it out alive. Unfortunately, however, Johnny gets out with severe burns and a broken back. While he is in the hospital, Cherry has a conflict with herself: she is asked by Ponyboy to go see Johnny in the hospital, but she says no because she doesn’t want to face the person who killed Bob. In the time of the trial, Cherry and other Soc’s testify and come clean about the night of the stabbing. Consequently, since they told the truth, Johnny, Sodapop, and Darry all got to stay together. Cherry Valance is an emotional, caring, and trustworthy friend.
History speaks of war, the larger picture is told. The story were young men go out and fight for their country. It speaks of those who had to leave- not those left behind. History rarely addresses that people were left behind. Both Kareen from Johnny Got His Gun and Jennie Shenandoah were left behind when their significant other went to fight in the battles of war.
