In Chapter 4 of “The Outsiders”, Ponyboy and Johnny “run away” from home and go to the park because Ponyboy got into an argument with his brother Darry. They never intend to actually leave for a long time but when the Socs show up at the park and try to drown Ponyboy, Johnny feels that he has to save Ponyboy no matter what. So, Johnny takes out his knife and stabs Bob, the Soc who is trying to drown Ponyboy, killing him.

Explanation:
To critique a piece of writing is to do the following:
describe: give the reader a sense of the writer’s overall purpose and intent
analyze: examine how the structure and language of the text convey its meaning
interpret: state the significance or importance of each part of the text
assess: make a judgment of the work’s worth or value
FORMATTING A CRITIQUE
Here are two structures for critiques, one for nonfiction and one for fiction/literature.
The Critique Format for Nonfiction
Introduction
name of author and work
general overview of subject and summary of author's argument
focusing (or thesis) sentence indicating how you will divide the whole work for discussion or the particular elements you will discuss
Body
objective description of a major point in the work
detailed analysis of how the work conveys an idea or concept
interpretation of the concept
repetition of description, analysis, interpretation if more than one major concept is covered
Conclusion
overall interpretation
relationship of particular interpretations to subject as a whole
critical assessment of the value, worth, or meaning of the work, both negative and positive
The Critique Format for Fiction/Literature
Introduction
name of author and work
brief summary/description of work as a whole
focusing sentence indicating what element you plan to examine
general indication of overall significance of work
Body
literal description of the first major element or portion of the work
detailed analysis
interpretation
literal description of second major element
detailed analysis
interpretation (including, if necessary, the relationship to the first major point)
and so on
Conclusion
overall interpretation of the elements studied
consideration of those elements within the context of the work as a whole
critical assessment of the value, worth, meaning, or significance of the work, both positive and negative
You may not be asked in every critique to assess a work, only to analyze and interpret it. If you are asked for a personal response, remember that your assessment should not be the expression of an unsupported personal opinion. Your interpretations and your conclusions must be based on evidence from the text and follow from the ideas you have dealt with in the paper.
Remember also that a critique may express a positive as well as a negative assessment. Don't confuse critique with criticize in the popular sense of the word, meaning “to point out faults.”
<span>Egalitarianism, by dictionary definition is the aim
for an equality in wealth, status, etc. Lower density of men means that it is
lower than the average number of a certain population in a certain country.
Achieving egalitarian, or being an egalitarian, is hard to achieve since not
all people want to be in equal footing with everyone. Sexual equality is when
both biological sexes, regardless of gender, are in egalitarian state in terms
of all the benefits opportunities in the society. It is very important because
discrimination between the sexes and the creation of introjected gender roles
had sprouted to societal issues such as discrimination, sexism, etc. Parents
could educated their children by giving them household responsibilities
regardless of their genders.</span>
Rene Descartes was a French mathematician wherein he was coined to be the "Father of Modern Philosophy." He was famously credited to the line "I think, therefore I am" in which he was the leading figure in the development of mechanistic sciences. In addition, the excerpt most likely conveys the Descartes used a modest tone.
