Answer:  the most important event in chapter 7 is Ponyboy, Darry, and Soda wait in the hospital for news of Dally and Johnny. Reporters come, take a lot of pictures, and ask a lot of questions. When the boys finally convince the doctor they are the closest thing to family that Dally and Johnny have, the doctor informs them that one of Dally's arms is burned badly and will be scarred forever but he'll regain full use of that arm after a couple weeks of healing. Johnny, however, is in critical condition. He is suffering from third-degree burns and severe shock. Even worse, his back is broken. "Even if he lived he'd be crippled for the rest of his life," the brothers learn from the doctor. Ponyboy falls asleep in the car on the way home.

A major theme in this novel is the reality that every action, every decision, has consequences. Chapter 7 demonstrates this theme particularly well. When Ponyboy and Johnny ran away, Ponyboy had not thought at all about the possibility of being split apart from his brothers as a consequence. But now he faces a hearing to decide his future, and being put in a boys' home or reform school are very real possibilities for him. And when Ponyboy and Johnny decided to save the schoolchildren from the burning church, they didn't calculate the possible consequences, but now Johnny is lying barely conscious in a hospital room. Soda loves Sandy and wants to marry her, but now she is pregnant she has been sent away to live with her grandmother in Florida. Everything we do has consequences, whether those consequences are intended or accidental.

Write a essay on Getting to know someone
nikitadnepr [17]

Getting to know someone can be hard. Sometimes it takes courage to ask or say certain things.

Getting to know someone is like getting to learn about something new. Always start off by asking name,age or etc. Do not get too deep because it can get too personal and a lot of people are insecure about certain things. Also it really depends on why you want to get to know someone maybe it can be for a relationship or etc. It isn't easy nor is it hard. Being self centered or TOO relatable can lead to getting off the topic of "getting to know someone", always try and stick to what they are saying and etc. Don't be too harsh or rude it can make people think otherwise or even lose confidence in themselves. Always think about what can possibly happen if getting to know someone this well what can happen in the future or how it will affect you. Always have a positive start don't be negative. Try not making the situation too serious that may lead to boredom for the person or even yourself, making you lose interest in getting to know them.

It is all a process but at the end sometimes it's worth it.

(This is probably really bad but I'm just giving you ideas)

*One hundred years of delay have passed since President Lincoln freed the slaves, yet their heirs, their grandsons, are not full
Hitman42 [59]

President Kennedy's phrase "the bonds of injustice" refers to the social and economic oppression of the slaves' heirs. (option C)

<h3>What are "the bonds of injustice"?</h3>

First, it is important to understand the context given by the passage. President Kennedy is talking about the slaves who were freed by President Lincoln, and then he moves on to their heirs, that is, to all African Americans.

When President Kennedy mentions that those heirs are not freed from "the bonds of injustice," he means that African Americans still face social and economic oppression, that they are still not treated equally.

With the information above in mind, we can select option C as the correct answer.
