     Today, I finished reading a book called The Outsiders. The Outsiders is a book about the life of Ponyboy Curtis and his struggles with right and wrong in a society. In the story, the gang came from West side- Socs and the gang came from East side- Greasers are always fought together. I'm so sad that Johnny and Dally died at last, I saw the relationship between the Greasers like Dally, Dally died because Johnny was the only thing Dally loved. I almost cried.      After I read this book, I learned the people's life in the past, and what they did everyday. I also learned lots of words that use in the story that I didn't know at first.      I recommend all of you to read this book because is very interesting. Even though it's a very sad story, but is good to read it.      

Dear Ponyboy, I am a Soc, and I have to say that you are wrong. I know that greasers' life is hard, but you don't understand how hard is being a Soc. You always think that greasers are the poor gang from the East side, and Soc are the wealthy gang from West side. You think we have good grades, good cars, good girls, and good clothes, but that's absolutely wrong. We have lots of problems, too. We are not as rich as you thought.  We can't get good grades all the time, and we have problems with our parents like you guys do. Not all the girls like us because we always drink alcohol. We are not the people that you think. Maybe we think you guys wrong, too. For my own opinion, I wish we can be friends one day and get together. I wish there'll be no fight anymore, so nobody will get hurt or even died. Soc, Unknown
