Explanation:
S.E. Hinton uses a variety of literary devices to make The Outsiders an interesting read. Some of these include alliteration, foreshadowing, hyperbole, irony, personification, simile, and metaphor. Alliteration includes the repetition of similar sounds.
I would definitely say that this is the first option: Teenagers' concerns about appearance can affect their feelings about themselves.
Why do I think this? Well let me explain. In the first passage, the person specifically prays for the boy they fell in love with, as well as a new nose. That would indicate that they aren't happy with the way they look.
Now onto the second passage. Alfonso believes that he has to be in amazing shape to get the girls in "cut offs" to notice him, and to think that he's strong and handsome. He wants them to think that he's capable of handling himself, no matter the circumstances. It also states that he hates the way he looks. He's insecure about what he looks like.
I hope that this helps you.
But how can someone get lost if they been there dozens of times lol
The answer is A, because it many people did not know how to read or have seen a book with words.
It's either Character vs society or character vs nature. It could be either, honestly. Character vs nature because she was burnt by a fire, but it could be vs. society because most of the story focuses on what other people view her as. I believe the answer that they're looking for, however, is character vs society.
