PLEASE HELP I AM VERY CONFUSED

<span>Because your goal for this essay is to discuss how Shakespeare transformed the original source, you’ll want to focus, first, on what they both have in common (comparing similar attributes).  Then, you’ll want to focus on how elements of similarities were changed or how new things entirely were added or how things may have even been omitted (contrast).   This can be done in one of two ways—block or point by point. 
</span>


<span />

<span>If you format the essay in block format, you’ll first discuss in a paragraph or two elements selected for discussion in “Pyramus and Thisbe.”  Then, after you finish discussing Ovid’s myth, you’ll discuss, also in a paragraph or two, the elements being compared/contrasted in Shakespeare’s work.  Be sure to discuss the same points in the same order in block method.  A compare/contrast essay in this method might resemble the following:</span>


INTRO PARAGRAPH


BODY PARAGRAPH – Ovid

Attribute 1

Attribute 2

Attribute 3


BODY PARAGRAPH – Shakespeare

Attribute 1

Attribute 2

Attribute 3


CONCLUSION

 

<span>Another method used when constructing a compare/contrast essay is called point by point.  In this format, you will discuss elements of both works within the same paragraph and do so point by point.  An essay constructed in this manner might resemble the following:  </span>


INTRODUCTION


PARAGRAPH

Attribute from Ovid

Same attribute from Shakespeare


PARAGRAPH

Attribute from Ovid

Same attribute from Shakespeare


PARAGRAPH

Attribute from Ovid

Same attribute from Shakespeare


CONCLUSION

 

<span>In this type for format, be sure to always discuss the same work first.  Thus, Ovid should always be mentioned first, then you’ll follow that up with a discussion of Shakespeare because, after all, you are supposed to be discussing how Shakespeare changed things, and this would make the most sense.   Point by point would probably be the most efficient manner in which to highlight the transformations made by Shakespeare since it would keep both elements fresh within the mind/eye of the reader.</span>

Examples that show ponyboy lacks common sense
Butoxors [25]
Ponyboy is very caring and generous and loves his brother Soda "I kept saving my money for a year, thinking that someday I could by Mickey Mouse back for Soda."

Ponyboy is very book smart by lacks common sense "...But I don't use my head."

Ponyboy is also very different from the rest of the Outsiders, he is not a violent kid. "Why do I fight? I thought, and I couldn't think of any real good reasons."

(hope this helps, The Outsiders was one of my favorite set books for English)
