Answer:

Ponyboy has empathy for others and selflessly takes it upon himself to help people in need.

Explanation:

There are several scenes that depict Pony's selfless personality throughout the novel. After Johnny stabs and kills Bob Sheldon, Ponyboy acts selflessly by traveling to Windrixville and hiding out with Johnny. Although Ponyboy has no reason to hide from the police, he decides to be there for his friend and hide out with Johnny in the abandoned church. When Ponyboy learns that there are several children trapped inside of the burning church, Ponyboy risks his safety by entering the building to save the children. Fortunately, Ponyboy is unharmed and is able to save all of the children that were trapped inside. Towards the end of the novel, Ponyboy again displays his selfless personality after reading Johnny's letter. Ponyboy takes into consideration the feelings of hundreds of other boys who are experiencing similar struggles before he decides to the write the novel.

What effect does the setting have on the plot at the beginning of the story
Kipish [7]
By giving the setting at the beginning of a story, it gives the reader an idea of what the plot will look like. If the setting of a story is in a haunted mansion on Halloween night, the reader has an idea that the plot will probably involve ghosts, chasing, capture, etc. Basically any Scooby-Doo movie ever. All in all, the setting gives the reader an idea of how the plot will lay out.

Can someone name a me a poem and write a brief summary on it.<br><br> please and thank you
Pavel [41]

Poem:

Neglect by R. T. Smith

Summary:

The speaker in this poem seems to be filled with regret and sadness due to the fact that his apple tree he had neglected is now gone. It connects to a more general theme, such as loss. The fact that, we neglect to spend as much time as possible with the ones we love, and regret it in the ending when we realize it is too late. We tend to blame ourselves in every way, for it’s hard to deal with sudden tragedies. Looking at the apple tree as more of a metaphor, one can see that the speaker cannot help but find something precious to be lost. Continuously he even says “I should have” rather than facing acceptance. The reason the speaker’s idea can be expressed easily without having to actually state the loss of an apple tree as metaphorical, is that the poem is titled neglect. It is simply generalizing what others could feel the topic may express to them. The tone of voice complements the words perfectly, for it is emotional and the metaphors carry on the moral of the poem. The mood constantly makes you think that he is facing a hard battle, for it is depressing. “Is the scent of apple boughs smoking in the woodstove what I will remember of the Red Delicious I brought down, ashamed” This line presents regret and the burden that hangs over him for he had not cared for the tree enough, although he had loved it very much; much like the people in our lives. However, he does speak of everyone, “For any living being unloved, untended.” For in his mind he knows what it’s like to do such upon others. Overall what the speaker feels the reader feels, and the feeling is guilt and grief.

Don't forget to paraphrase!

Paraphrase means to put it into your own words.

Hope this helps!
