Ponyboy had to read Great Expectations by Charles Dickens for his English class. He says that Pip, the protagonist of Dickens's novel, reminds him of himself and his family because Pip feels inferior to others who are wealthier and who are considered gentlemen. Also, "the girl," as Ponyboy describes Estella in Great Expectations, disdains Pip. Ponyboy recalls that when he was in biology class, he pulled out a switchblade to do a dissection, and a girl gasped and said that Ponyboy was a "hood." Like Pip, Ponyboy knows what it feels like to be looked down and knows what it's like to want to be something greater than what one is. Ponyboy connects with the literature he is reading; later, he will write down his own story and what happened to his brothers and his friends in the greasers.

hram777 [196]

Friday's traits which Crusoe find admirable is:

A. His gratefulness, as shown when Crusoe saves his life.

After rescuing one of the Natives of the Island, Crusoe starts to converse with him so that he can know about him and his native people. He named him Friday and started making strategies through which he can teach him the way of living. He taught him to speak some words of English, the way to clothe oneself, the eating habits and to call him his ‘master.’ Crusoe noticed that it was easy for him to educate Friday through religious patterns. He tells him about God and his creations with whom Friday easily related his own deity Benamuckee.
