Answer:
The educational setback that occurs when students forget some of the information they learned during the school year is known as summer learning loss (also summer setback or summer slide).
Explanation:
When coming back to school after a long period of holidays, it is common for students to show loss of knowledge and academic skills. That fact can be measured by the use of a standardized test right before the holidays and again when students return to school. The loss varies according to different factors such as age, subject, and even family income. Still, in general, researchers have found that the loss of knowledge is greater in mathematics, and that students in higher grade levels tend to lose more than those of lower grade levels.
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.
