If you know the outsiders, answer this, or write this. (I will change it myself no need for you to change it.) Assignment: Write an argumentative letter from Ponyboy to Paul Holden (of the Socs) persuading him that the rumble should not take place. You need to think of at least three claims to include in your letter. Use specific characters and events from the chapters to help make your claims. Also, try the strategy of bringing up the Socs side but making your side of the argument appear to be the best choice. This gives strength to your argument.
Your letter should have:

*A greeting and closing line

*A main idea (the argument)

*At least two claims (reasons) with supporting details

*Your letter does not have to be long, but it should be at least a paragraph and contain the argument, two claims or reasons with supporting details and examples.

throughout the ancient epic of gilgamesh, the protagonist, gilgamesh of course, exhibited many character traits that made him a true epic hero. one great trait that gilgamesh acquires of an epic hero is that he's a courageous and confident leader. in the text enkidu is too afraid to fight, but he's positive that gilgamesh has the ability to triumph against humbaba. gilgamesh tells enkidu to not be afraid and then continues on to remind him of all the victories he's had against similar foe. gilgamesh proves that he's confident by encouraging enkidu and shows he's courageous when enkidu ask gilgamesh to battle humbaba alone because he knows that gilgamesh will reign victorious.

another characteristic that makes gilgamesh an epic hero is that he's brave and takes risks. "dread surged through gilgamesh, terror flooded his muscles, his heart froze, his mouth went dry, his legs shook, his feet were rooted to the ground. / gilgamesh felt his courage return. they charged at humbaba like two wild bulls." when reading the first part of the quote you see that gilgamesh is terrified of humbaba, and realizing that humbaba is the antagonist he's about to battle is taking a big risk. gilgamesh soon shows how brave he is by not letting his fear of humbaba overtake him, instead he went charging into the face of fear and triumphs.
