Characteristics Of The Outsiders
Character characteristics

From reading the book named The Outsiders By S.E. Hinton, I found that Ponyboy was the character that has many similarities to me. I can relate to him since he is very athletic, smart, kind. I think that I do not connect to any other character like I connect to Ponyboy.

The first characteristic we have in common is how both of us are very athletic. Ponyboy and I, play a variety of sports. Ponyboy is very athletic because he is on the track team for his school. I have been on the school track team two years in a row. Also, I play soccer every Monday and Friday. Therefore, I would consider myself as an athletic person.

The second characteristic we share is that both of us are kind to others. An example of his kindness

    The Outsiders Movie Review Essay

    The Outsiders, directed by Francis Ford Coppola was released in 1983. Ponyboy Curtis (C. Thomas Howell) is a greaser whose parents were killed in a car accident. He and his friends: Johnny (Ralph Macchio), Dally (Matt Dillon), Two-Bit (Emilio Estevez), and Steve (Tom Cruise), and brothers, Darry (Patrick Swayze) and Soda (Rob Lowe), are always getting in fights with a gang called the Socs. One night, best friend Johnny, are attacked by Socs. The Socs almost drown Ponyboy, and Johnny, defending Ponyboy, stabs Bob (a Soc). Pony, and Johnny find a church to hide out in. A bunch of little kids are trapped inside the church which caught on fire, and Pony, Johnny, and Dally save them.

    Dynamic Characters In The Outsiders

    The most dynamic character in the book The Outsiders is Ponyboy Curtis. Throughout the course of the book his actions,thoughts,and things he said, lead me to believe the he is the most dynamic character. This is true for many reasons, first at the beginning of the book he needed to be protected, but towards the end of the book he was able to protect himself. Furthermore Ponyboy changed his views toward Dallas during the book, lastly he realizes that Darry actually does love him and doesn't hate him contrary to his former beliefs.…

    comparing and contrasting Odysseus and Percy Jackson

    Why are not all humans exactly the same? What separates humans apart from each other, aside from their external appearance? Each individual human being is unique and extraordinary, due to the different characteristics they possess. Granting the fact that humans having similar qualities is a frequent occurrence, no two individuals attain identical personalities. Comparing and contrasting the characteristics of Odysseus, the main character in The Odyssey, an Epic Poem taking place in ancient Greek culture, and Percy Jackson, the main character in the novel The Lightning Thief, likenesses and differences within their character traits are easily able to be recognized. Although Odysseus and Percy both exhibited loyalty and bravery, the characteristic of confidence was not equally shared between them.…

    Mary Warren Character Traits

    First trait Mary Warren and I share is that we are caring, Mary displayed her caring side when she felt so bad for not being at the Proctor's house all day. So, Mary made a poppet for Elizabeth. She tried to prove that she was sorry and that she does care about her and wants to help her out. Being caring could also be one of my flaws. My caring side is a big help at times For example, when my best friend broke up with her boyfriend. I bought her some flowers and took her out to eat to cheer her up. Another time when I was caring was when a kid in my gym class was getting made fun…

    Gran Terino

    It is very rare to meet people who are exactly alike. Even those who are generically identical, still have different personalities and characteristics. People often wonder, what exactly is it that makes us who we are? Is it the way people were raised? The environment they grew up in? The role models around them? The experiences they have been through? It would seem almost impossible to determine exactly what makes up the character of a person. It is often believed that it is a combination of elements that mold us all into who we are.…
