Our classroom is going to be redecoreted.
<span>Soda is the middle child, and as the most amiable of the three, he often gets caught in-between Ponyboy and Darry when they clash. Ponyboy and Darry often argue, and when they do, they both want Soda to be on their side, forgetting that he has his own problems too. In Chapter 12, this is clearly illustrated when Darry confronts Ponyboy about his behavior since the deaths of their friends. Ponyboy retorts, "You'd like that, wouldn't you" You'd like me just to get out. Well, it's not that easy, is it, Soda?" Soda responds by crying "Don't", and runs out of the house, shocking Darry and Ponyboy, who, in being so wrapped up in his own battles, have never considered that he had troubles of his own and needs their support sometimes too. Soda tells them, "I can't stand to hear y'all fight. Sometimes...it's like I'm the middleman in a tug o' war and I'm being split in half".</span>
Answer:
Airplane crash.
Explanation:
Billy knows the airplane will crash, but he says nothing. The passengers are entertained by a barbershop quartet. The group sings lewd, racist songs to entertain Billy's father-in-law. When the plane crashes into Sugarbush Mountain, Vermont, everyone is killed except Billy and the copilot.
This is an example of a epic simile
