Ponyboy is experiencing a conflict between his looks and himself.

The conflict in the passage is an internal conflict. When a literary character experiences conflict inside of them, that is an internal conflict.

Ponyboy wished that he looks like Paul Newman who appears tough. However, Ponyboy does not look tough. He then goes on to consider himself not bad looking though as he justifies his looks by saying that "I have light brown, almost-red hair and greenish-gray eyes".

Ponyboy does not like his looks too much because he compares his looks to Paul Newman and wants to look like him. He is not content with his looks but also justifies that he is not bad looking either. He himself is not sure whether is looks good or not. Thus, he experiences an internal conflict between his looks and himself.

Which sentences are written in passive voice?

Lorico [155]

Answer: Sentences 2, 4 and 5 are written in passive voice.

Explanation:

We use passive voice when we want to put an emphasis on the action and the object, rather than subject. In other words, subject is either insignificant in that particular case, or we do not know who/what the subject is. The object from the active sentence becomes the subject in the passive sentence.

For example, active sentence is: One of my favorite authors wrote that book, while passive sentence is: That book was written by one of my favorite authors.

We form passive from the auxiliary verb (often verb to be) and past participle.

Read the excerpt below from The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky and answer the questions that follow.

NikAS [45]

Answer: The author's tone in this passage sounds appreciative. The character is describing everyday aspects of life that stick out to them, like the weather. In the passage, the author uses words like "pretty" and "warm" while describing how they felt about the weather. This character goes on to describe their liking to spending time outside because they had to mow the lawn. I say this author has an appreciative tone because typical teenagers would most likely complain about having to mow the lawn, but this one enjoyed the task along with the outdoors.
