I believe that this means that even though they know that they're eventually going to die, they don't want to until they have done something that's impacted the world in a big way, causing them to fight against death.

They will try to delay their death, because their works that they had done in this world had not impacted the world in a big way. Therefore, they will stay here until they do something great that cause "lightning".

PLEASE HELP :(
frez [133]

Answer:

I really liked the ending of the novel 'The Outsiders' by S.E Hinton because firstly i thought it was a very unique way how the author finished the novel the way she started. "When I stepped out into the bright sunlight from the darkness of the movie house, I had only two things on mind: Paul Newman and a ride home...". The second reason why i liked the ending is that Ponyboy didn't get put into a home like he thought he would. Instead, the judge was surprisingly kind and only asked what kind of grades he made at school and if he liked school as well. "All the judge did was ask me if I liked living with Darry, if i liked school, what kind of grades I made, and stuff like that.

click the sentence on the paragraph that best shows the son cares about his father despite wanting to trick him
Igoryamba

Answer:

As soon as he arrived, he placed the moccasins, the arrowhead, and the prized quiver in his father’s sleeping roll where the Old Man would tense with fear once again upon retrieving them that evening.

Explanation:

In the given passage, we can see that the son has had enough of his jokes on his father. He decided to stop making his father worried. But at the same time, he still tries to play a trick on him. So, he went ahead and left all the items in his tipi so that his father will be surprised to see them.

The sentence that shows how the son cares about his father yet wants to trick him is seen in the third sentence. The act of returning the items to his father shows he cares for him but at the same time, wanting to make him <em>"tense with fear" </em>shows his playful side.

"As soon as he arrived, he placed the moccasins, the arrowhead, and the prized quiver in his father’s sleeping roll where the Old Man would tense with fear once again upon retrieving them that evening."
