Explanation:
This answer is not full, the options are missing. They are as following:
- A. She wants other people to see her.
- B. She feels genuine admiration for the man.
- C. She exaggerates her actions in order to prove a point.
- D. She is more intent on pleasing herself than she is on pleasing the man.
The answers are A, C and D.
<u>From the excerpt we can see the woman is exaggerating her movements and actions, which is most clearly seen in the last line "She spoke with great distinctness, moving her lips meticulously, as if in parlance with the deaf."</u>
<u>She is exaggerating her movement of the lips and accenting of the words in order to try to prove what she says and underline its importance, even to hide her real thoughts. </u>
<u>We also see she does this for her own enjoyment and exposure with the line "extended her hand at the length of her arm and held it so for all the world to see, until the Negro took it, shook it, and gave it back to her."</u>
<u>With this she is trying to draw attention to her pleasure, to the man taking her hand, to show how she is graceful and polite, and to better her social status. </u>
Answer: 1. In chapter 1, Ponyboy gets jumped by a group of Socs while he is walking home from the movies. Fortunately, several Greasers come to his aid and the Socs scatter. Two-Bit is one of the gang members to arrive at the scene and attempts to lift Pony's spirits by telling him, "Nice cut, too. Makes you look tough" (Hinton, 11).
2. Two-Bit is with Ponyboy buying Cokes at the Tasty Freeze when Randy Adderson asks to speak to Pony before the rumble. Two-Bit makes sure that Randy doesn't attempt to harm Ponyboy while he speaks to him inside his car about Bob's death and not attending the rumble.
3. In chapter 8, Two-Bit goes with Ponyboy to visit Johnny and Dally in the hospital. During their visit, Two-Bit witnesses Johnny in critical condition and goes to the drugstore to buy him a copy of Gone with the Wind. After visiting Johnny, Two-Bit sees Dally and gives Dally his prized switchblade without hesitating.
4. Two-Bit is involved in the rumble against the Socs that takes place in chapter 9 and is the person who yells, "They're running! . . . Look at the dirty --- run" (Hinton, 123). After the Socs flee the scene, Ponyboy notices that Two-Bit has a deep gash down the side of his face and recalls seeing Two-Bit's hand gushing blood.
5. In chapter 10, Two-Bit and the other gang members are lounging around at Darry's home when Ponyboy enters and tells them that Johnny died. He then mentions that Dally ran out of the hospital and Two-Bit comments, "So he finally broke . . . So even Dally has a breaking point" (Hinton, 130). The gang then races after Dally and Two-Bit is there to witness the police shoot and kill their friend after Dally pulls out his unloaded pistol.
