Read the following excerpt from “The Outsiders” by S.E
Hinton
Level 1: “Nobody but Dally would
know where we were, and he couldn't tell anyone because he'd get jailed again
for giving us that gun. If Johnny got caught, they'd give him the electric
chair, and if they caught me, I'd be sent to a reformatory.”
Level
1: Who is the only person who knows where Ponyboy and Johnny are?
a). Dally
b). Darry
c). Cherry
Level 2: “Nobody but Dally would
know where we were, and he couldn't tell anyone because he'd get jailed again
for giving us that gun. If Johnny got caught, they'd give him the electric
chair, and if they caught me, I'd be sent to a reformatory. I'd heard about
reformatories from Curly Shepard and I didn't want to go to one at all. I was
in the country, but I knew I wasn't going to like it as much as I'd thought I
would. There are things worse than being a greaser.”
Level

Dally
gave

Level 3: “I figured I couldn't
get into any worse trouble than murder. Johnny and I would be hiding for the
rest of our lives. Nobody but Dally would know where we were, and he couldn't
tell anyone because he'd get jailed again for giving us that gun. If Johnny got
caught, they'd give him the electric chair, and if they caught me, I'd be sent
to a reformatory. I'd heard about reformatories from Curly Shepard and I didn't
want to go to one at all., So we'd have to be hermits for the rest of our
lives, and never see anyone but Dally. Maybe I'd never see Darry or Sodapop
again. Or even TwoBit or Steve. I was in the country, but I knew I wasn't going
to like it as much as I'd thought I would. There are things worse than being a
greaser.”
Level
3: Why does Ponyboy say “there are worse things than being a greaser”?
