What do you think is going on with Ponyboy when he says, "Johnny didn't have anything to do with Bob's getting killed"?
Answer:
Ponyboy is trying to defend Jhonny.
Whenever Randy Adderson has a conversation with Ponyboy about the upcoming trial, Ponyboy mentions that he was the one who killed Bob Sheldon. Ponyboy believes that Johnny was innocent and takes the blame for murdering the Soc member. The reason Ponyboy insists that he was the one who stabbed Bob Sheldon is because he is both in a state of denial and is suffering from posttraumatic stress disorder. Ponyboy has just witnessed the deaths of his two close friends which is extremely traumatizing.
He is not thinking clearly and desperately wants to repress the memories of the tragic events. Ponyboy is also in a state of denial and does not want to accept Johnny's death. He is essentially tricking himself as a coping mechanism. Ponyboy eventually comes to terms with the tragic death of Johnny and accepts the reality of the rough situation.

BRAINLIEST IF RIGHT The U.S. Oil Embargo. In 1931, Japan invaded a country called Manchuria. Six years later, it invaded mainland China. Japan was an ally of Germany and Italy, both under the control of Adolf Hitler. Most countries were worried about this alliance because these nations were attacking their neighbors. The United States was among the nations who shared a concern about these aggressive countries called "the Axis."
Soon after Japan invaded China, World War II started. Japan attacked lands belonging to other countries; many of them were allied with the United States. Though the United States was not at war yet with Japan, President Roosevelt took action because of these attacks. The United States refused to sell Japan steel and oil. This is a situation called an "embargo." Steel is used in the manufacture of weapons of war, and oil is used as fuel for war machines. The United States claimed that it was refusing to sell these resources to Japan because it did not want to help Japan wage war.
Japan decided to attack the U.S. soon after the embargo began. Japan wanted to force the U.S. to surrender quickly. The attack on Pearl Harbor brought the U.S. into World War II, and the Axis countries were defeated four years later.

You’ve seen that the first lines of the poem illustrate that the beginning of the life cycle is precious. It doesn’t last long, so it’s rare. The last four lines of the poem all describe ways in which things pass from the ideal state of their beginning—where they are precious, rare, valuable, and short lived—to a more mature state that is less precious. Describe how each of these lines conveys the message of something precious becoming less precious.
Answer:

People were always telling Jimmy to settle down and keep quiet, especially his teachers. Jimmy emerged as the chief disruptive force in his classes. As soon as he came into view, teachers knew that chaos would follow. If someone made a mistake, Jimmy was the first to notice and point it out. If someone got an answer right, Jimmy would make fun of the student for trying too hard. The joking and insults were a constant interruption and came at frequent intervals.
Trips to the principal’s office and detentions didn’t curb his outbursts. Jimmy’s father even tried to get him to back off by threatening to send him to a military academy. For a while, it seemed, nothing could make Jimmy retreat from his bad behavior. What no one knew was that Jimmy thought he was practicing for a future career as a stand-up comedian.

PLEASE HELP!!! MY TEACH SIAIS I HAVE TO WRITE AT LEAST 9 setence and I only write 5 please help! I need at least 4 more setence. PLEASE HELP.What are 3 ways human can continue to protect brown bear population today?? PLEASEE HELP!! PLEASEEEE HELPPP!!!!
Answer:
I just looked this up real quick so it's not gonna be super good but i'll try, I hope this helps.
To protect the brown bear population, we as humans need to understand that their lives are important and that we can help to keep them safe. One of the things we can do to protect the brown bears is to plant more fruit trees and other plants that provide food for the bears to eat. In doing so, we are reducing the risk of brown bears dying from starvation or getting sick from eating things that they are not meant to eat as a result of food shortages. We also need to reduce the poaching and persecution of brown bears by putting more restrictions on hunting guidelines and making it harder for people to legally hunt brown bears without consequence. Lastly, we can further protect the brown bear population by reducing the amounts of students that will grow up to become hunters. In order to do this, we need to implement more environmental programs into school systems to teach students about the importance of protecting and preserving nature. By implementing these programs, we can help more students to realize that it is our jobs as humans to take care of the planet we were given and the other beings we share it with. If we work together to reduce the poaching of brown bears and other animals that have lower populations, we would be allowing the brown bears to have more chances to survive and reproduce in order to grow their population. Therefore, in order to protect the brown bear population, we should plant more food for the bears, put more restrictions on hunting brown bears, and implement more enviornmental teaching programs in schools to help students understand tha value of brown bear's lives and reduce the amount of students who will grow up to become hunters.

Read the passage from “The Fall of the House of Usher” by Edgar Allan Poe.
From “The Fall of the House of Usher” by Edgar Allan Poe
Shaking off from my spirit what must have been a dream, I scanned more narrowly the real aspect of the building. Its principal feature seemed to be that of an excessive antiquity [old age or looking like an antique]. The discoloration of ages had been great. Minute fungi overspread the whole exterior . . . No portion of the masonry [stonework] had fallen; and there appeared to be a wild inconsistency between its still perfect adaptation of parts, and the crumbling condition of the individual stones.
Poe is using two types of organization in this passage: spatial and order of importance. Focusing on order of importance, which phrase represents the most significant detail in this description?
A. No portion of the masonry [stonework] had fallen
B. the crumbling condition of the individual stones
C. seemed to be that of an excessive antiquity
D. Minute fungi overspread the whole exterior
