Daisy, Tom, and Gatsby are filthy rich people. Daisy becomes infatuated with Gatsby despite her relationship with Tom...their relationship is already broken anyways since Tom has been cheating on Daisy with some chick named Myrtle. Nick(the narrator) is fascinated with Gatsby, but Nick plays hardly any noticable role in the story...he's more of an onlooker of all the rich-people drama. Gatsby and Daisy fall "in love" or perhaps they're just lustful for one another. Long story short, Daisy runs over Tom's lover Myrtle and kills her...and then a couple days later Gatsby dies in his fancy pool.
The key ideas of the speech are that Americans must maintain faith, courage, and hope even if it seems impossible to maintain them. He develops these ideas by reinforcing how these feelings build what a person is and should be. These ideas help form the theme that resilience is what builds duty, honor, and country.
We can arrive at this answer because:
- The “Duty, Honor, Country” speech was recited by Douglas MacArthur to showcase the ideals espoused by Korean War veterans.
- He shows that these ideals must be followed by all Americans, as they transform what Americans were, are and will be.
- He claims that these ideals should be enough to build people's resilience, leaving them with faith, hope and courage, even when circumstances don't help.
In that case, he asserts that Americans must be resilient, as this is what built honor and duty to the country, allowing for the safety and protection of America and its constituents.

Annabel Lee" is the last poem composed by Edgar Allan Poe, one of the foremost figures of American literature. It was written in 1849 and published not long after the author's death in the same year. It features a subject that appears frequently in Poe's writing: the death of a young, beautiful woman. The poem is narrated by Annabel Lee's lover, who forcefully rails against the people—and supernatural beings—who tried to get in the way of their love. Ultimately, the speaker claims that his bond with Annabel Lee was so strong that, even after her death, they are still together.

Explanation:
In her speech she talks about how fear is connected with the stories we had read. She says, first, we have to acknowledge that fear is an entire system of the brain.
Yet today, when we do not have to fear a saber-toothed tiger behind every tree, we are still telling ourselves that a critical level of danger may be right around every corner.
Now our stress is social, ethical, and financial, but our brain elevates the challenges to that same fear center. We have difficult family situations that need attention, but we avoid wading in because we are imagining the worst possible outcome.
