Answer:

I believe that Dallas was both a positive and a negative influence on Johnny and Ponyboy. Although he was a bad person in general, he was there for the people he cared about when they needed him. That makes him a little misunderstood. He stood up for his friends and protected them. He even gave Johnny and Ponyboy the gun and money and helped them.

Even though there are ways Dally can be considered a good person, he could also be thought of as a bad one. Dally was always the one hitting on the girls. He did so many bad things and got caught by the police. Some of the things he was doing were illegal, and that's what ended up taking him in the end. He did good things for the ones he loved, but not so much for anyone else.

Dally is a pretty complex character, so there are many ways to perceive his actions. Sometimes the good overcomes the bad with ones actions. Other times it doesn't. But sometimes, like in this case, it's pretty even.

When what is said is opposite of what is expected
AnnZ [28]
My answer is that the word is irony, if you are referring to this in terms of a reading passage. Why? Well, see explanation below!

Irony is an instance where something is said or done that is the opposite of what was expected. This style is used a lot in stories like graphic novels. An example of irony would be Batman and the Joker teaming up, for anybody who knows DC superheroes and villains. This is considered irony because Batman is a vigilante, while the joker is a villain. The word “contradictory,” as the other person answered, would be incorrect because that means that two things are said that cannot be true.

Your final answer: Irony is the word you are looking for. If you need extra help, let me know and I will gladly assist you.

What is surprising about the towns reaction the ransom of red chief?
otez555 [7]

Answer:

The reader and Sam can see that the boy is still there as Bill apologizes for giving up the ransom. Situational irony is when the opposite of what you expect to happen occurs. This occurs when instead of getting a ransom for Red Chief, Bill and Sam end up paying the boy's father for taking him back.
