What made gatsby great? support your answer here with textual evidence

English
1 answer:
Oduvanchick [21]2 years ago

It’s the illusion of Gatsby that is great; what his life is like to a stranger looking from afar. He seems to have it all, giant house, handsome, big parties, etc. and he wants people to believe he is as great as his things. But given the end, we know he isn’t really great and he might have “it all” but without Daisy he has nothing (nothing that matters at least) and he realizes he’s isn’t great.

Which sentences in this excerpt from W. W. Jacobs's "The Monkey's Paw" show that the White family doubts the major's story?
koban [17]
The sentences that show that the Whites doubt the major's story are:

<span>"Sounds like the 'Arabian Nights,'” said Mrs. White, as she rose and began to set the supper. "Don't you think you might wish for four pairs of hands for me." - Mrs. White mildly mocks the story, joking about the amenities that the magical paw could bring them.

</span><span>Her husband drew the talisman from his pocket, and all three burst into laughter as the Sergeant-Major, with a look of alarm on his face, caught him by the arm. - All three family members actually make fun of the very concept of a magical paw.
</span>
<span>"If the tale about the monkey's paw is not more truthful than those he has been telling us," said Herbert, as the door closed behind their guest, just in time to catch the last train, "we shan't make much out of it." - Obviously, there's a good reason to doubt the major's story. The family knows him as a man who like to exaggerate things, to say the least.
</span>
<span>"Likely," said Herbert, with pretended horror. "Why, we're going to be rich, and famous and happy. Wish to be an emperor, father, to begin with; then you can't be henpecked." - Herbert keeps mocking the alleged magical properties of the monkey's paw.</span>

1. What is the main difference between conformity and obedience?
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

Obedience occurs when you are told to do something (authority), whereas conformity happens through social pressure (the norms of the majority). Obedience involves a hierarchy of power / status. Therefore, the person giving the order has a higher status than the person receiving the order.

Is it any easier for Moon shadow to fit in during the events in chapter 2 than in chapter 1 why or why not
Ne4ueva [31]

I'm not sure that Moon Shadow found it as difficult to fit in, as he found it difficult to comprehend the things he was surrounded by. He was curious about his father, and yet, he was frightened by the things his father was excited to show him. Moon Shadow was uncomfortable and frightened by the electric light, the ear phones, the crystal set, the strangely constructed machines, all of which he believed to be some kind of magic.

"I didn't say anything, but father realized I was scared from the way I was shaking".
