1. On the bottom of p.133, when Pony asks what kind of a world it is, what comment is he making about how society judges people?
The comment he is making about how society judges people is how people judge others by what they look, talk or act like. Socitey also judges people by their skin colour or "race".
2. Why do the boys fight? Why is Pony different?
The boys fight for different reason for each boy. They all fight for fun, hatred, pride, conformity. Ponyboy is different because he doesn't fight against the other gang, he fights for self-defense.
3. What is the difference between Tim Sheppard's gang and Ponyboy's? Explain how Pony feels this difference might give his group the upper hand?
The difference between Tim Sheppard's gang and Ponyboy's gang is that Tim Sheppard gives discipline, they're organized, and he is their leader while Ponyboy's gang were buddies and each man was their own leader.
4. What do you think Johnny's last words to Pony mean?
I think Johnny's last words to Ponyboy meant that Ponyboy should stay the way he is and just be himself.
