The Outsiders Practice Test

This question tests your knowledge of the Curtis brothers’ ages and roles. Darry is the eldest Curtis and is described as about twenty years old. He’s already shouldering adult responsibilities, working long hours to support Ponyboy and Sodapop after their parents’ death and acting as the parental figure in the family. Ponyboy is the youngest, around fourteen to fifteen, and Sodapop is a teenage older brother, roughly sixteen or seventeen. Bob Sheldon isn’t a Curtis brother at all; he’s a Soc and part of a rival group. So, the brother around twenty is Darry.
