Answer:

Chapter Eleven

1. True or false? Bob’s parents are partly responsible for their son’s death. Explain your answer.

Randy and Ponyboy have commented that Bob’s parents were too lenient with their son, which made him act out in worse and worse ways. In this chapter, Ponyboy wonders if Bob’s parents loved him too much or too little. Over-indulgence is equated with neglect here, making us think that Bob and Johnny had more in common than it would seem at first glance.

2. Ponyboy compares Bob to several of the members of the Greaser gang, noting Bob’s smile was like Sodapop’s, his eyes might have been like Johnny’s, and his recklessness and hot-temper were certainly like Dally’s. What is Hinton’s point in drawing such clear connections between Bob and the Greasers?

Answer - Again, Hinton is emphasizing the idea that these boys have much more in common than they realize. They are all individuals and contain far more sides/complexities than any label can accurately portray. The foolishness of their hatred is emphasized here.

3. Why, do you suppose, would Ponyboy rather have someone’s hate than his/her pity?

Answer =- Playing the victim is not Ponyboy’s style. He’d rather be hated and still hold some power than to be emasculated by pity.

4. Ponyboy has been a thoughtful voice of reason as the narrator of the story, but at the end of this chapter he’s changed and is now what is called an “unreliable narrator.” What’s going on with Ponyboy here in the last few pages of the chapter?

Answer - Put on your psychologist’s hat as you answer this question. In his deep grief over Johnny’s death, his mind has slipped into the defense mechanism of denial. He isn’t able yet to fully face the events of the last few days, so he’s lying to himself to try to ease his pain. This is interesting when we look at his statement in the first chapter, when he said, “I lie to myself all the time. But I never believe me.” On some level, Ponyboy knows that Johnny really is dead and that Johnny was, indeed, the one who stabbed Bob. He’s just not ready to deal with everything.

5. What’s another piece of evidence at the very end of the chapter that Darry and Ponyboy have repaired their relationship?

Answer - Darry is care-taking Ponyboy and calls him “little buddy,” a loving term Darry previously used only with Sodapop. Aww.

Below are works cited entries for a book in print by one author. Select the one that is completely correct.
True [87]

The correct answer is Entry A. Halpern, Howard M. Cutting Loose. New York: Simon and Schuster, 1977. Print.

Explanation:

In writing, it is common to use ideas or words of other authors to support own ideas; however, ideas taken from other sources and authors cannot be used without acknowledging authorship. This is usually included by adding some information such as the author's last name and the number page during in-text citation and including a works cited page at the end of the document with  entries that provide further information about each of the sources used during the paper; however, the type of information included is not the same in all cases and mainly depends on the type of source.

In the case of printed book by one author the MLA manual which is the manual commonly used to write and publish academic document establishes it is necessary to include the name of the author (last name first), the name of the book, the city of publication, the publisher, the year of publication and the word print. Besides this, other specific guidelines in terms of punctuation should be followed this includes separating the last name from the first name of the author using a comma, then adding a period before writing the name of the book then using period again to introduce the city of publication, using colon to introduce the publisher, followed by a comma to introduce the year and finally a period to introduce the word "Print". Considering this, the entry that is completely correct is "Halpern, Howard M. Cutting Loose. New York: Simon and Schuster, 1977. Print" as the information of the source has been included in the correct order and following the punctuation marks required.

Explain why it is important for readers to understand historical context and provide one example to support your claim?
dalvyx [7]

Understanding the historical context of a work of literature is important to better comprehend, and ultimately enjoy, that work and fully appreciate its significance. When reading a play by Shakespeare, for instance, the reader will benefit from knowing the religious, political, and social changes that took place in England when he wrote some of his works - that is, the historical context. <em>Othello</em> or <em>King Lear</em>, just to name some of his most renowned works, were composed during James I's reign, which was characterized by a fierce absolutism, hence the themes around which those plays revolve - ambition, betrayal, greed, fate, jealousy, and hatred, to name a few.
