Why is Ponyboy finally able to realize that Darry loves him? For The Outsiders)

English
1 answer:
Radda [10]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

As Ponyboy is passionately hugging Darry, he realizes for the first time that Darry had a silent fear of losing another person he loved. Essentially, Ponyboy misinterpreted his brother's affection and finally realizes that Darry loves him when they see each other for the first time after the abandoned church fire. Approved by eNotes Editorial Team

Explanation:

As the classic "big-brother-turned-father-figure" character, Darry shows his love for Ponyboy through a number of different actions. He displays concern for his education, and hopes that Pony will finish high school to accept opportunities he never had.

He also knows that the world beyond their doorstep is tough, and so he does his best to "toughen up" Ponyboy and the others. All this, while at the same time, Darry is overseeing Pony's advancements in school and in productive areas that will benefit him later in life. As the family fell apart and Darry was thrust into the position of head of household, we see that he carries the responsibility well, and sees after his own in a number of very caring ways.

Some scientists look into outer space while others look elsewhere. Georg Steinhauser looked into his bellybutton and discovered what the lint found there contains and its possible purpose. Mostly made of fabric bits and dead skin, it is most likely used to keep germs and other things out.

Select the sentence that correctly uses a comma with a transition.
Sholpan [36]

The answer is the third sentence: "Finally take care to put away all your supplies and clean your workstation, so you are ready for your shift in the morning." because the word 'so' is a conjuction.

Was never given in vain;
evablogger [386]
The tone in the last stanza is regretful. The poem is about a man who received advice from a wise man that he can give away all his wealth but not his heart. He's told that once you give away your heart, you lose it and end up regretting it. He experiences it and regrets afterwards.
