Ponyboys Research Paper
Ponyboy

I picked Ponyboy because he's cool and unique like me. Ponyboy is kind of short and slim and he has tall hair with grease in his hair .

Ponyboys real name is Ponyboy curtis. Pony boy has two brothers Sodapop and Darry.

Sodapop and Darry both work at a gas station.

Ponyboy and l have a lot alike like he has a thing for school work where he gets everything done for school the next day. I do to, I don't like to get behind either. Just like I do not like to stay inside too long Ponyboy is the same way he is always outside. Another way me and ponyboy are alike is that ponyboy likes going to the Movie Theater I also like going to the Movie Theater.

Ponyboy impacts Darry because he's his brother and Ponyboy loves him. Johnny

    The Curtis boys eat chocolate cake every morning, page 105 says this “The first one up has to make breakfast, I started to find the eggs we need for our chocolate cake we eat every morning for breakfast, along with our chocolate milk.” This is some proof that Ponyboy should go to the system. He would be better off with the system because, the cake has a lot of sugar and it’s he’s eating a block of sugar everyday.So if Ponyboy stays with Darry he could get bad stomach problems involving diabetes and stomach and health issues. So the opponents that are on Darry’s side might argue that “ He’s a kid let him eat what he wants.” Then back to the system side, “ What’s good with letting him eat what he wants, when it could lead him to health issues, body problems, and possibly dying. So now that the system has a step up, Ponyboy will be better off with the system because they will make sure he gets a good breakfast EVERY MORNING!…

    I think that Soda’s two traits that I picked him, describe him in a good ways. He is very empathetic and seemed like he was always worried about Pony and his other brother Darry but he was very understanding about what was going on with them. Soda is really handsome but that didn’t make him conceited or anything, he was proud of his good looks, but he didn’t flaunt them or brag about it. I admire Soda; he is a very caring person and was never rude to anyone unless there was a really good reason to be. I wish I a had a personality like him, not caring what other people thought and just moving on with…

    Dally is a criminal. Just like Ponyboy is peaceful, Dally is violent. “He’s the type of person who’ll probably find the fight. (pg 28)” This can be easily interpreted to me that he'll go looking for one and if there isn't one around he'll definitely start one. The only reason a person would want to fight is because they have a deep seeded resentment against their status in life and the crave excitement. This is confirmed when Ponyboy says, “Dally blew off steam in gang fights… (pg 47)” That means that he wasn’t fighting for a cause, nor for monetary gain. He also slits tires for fun. Both of these clean cut fact point towards an obvious conclusion. It can only mean that for him, violence and crime is a form of entertainment. He has nothing…
