Read the excerpt from "remembering to never forget: dominican republic’s ‘parsley massacre’" by mark memmott. passage a: this we

ek, people from around the world are expected to gather in the dominican republic for a "border of lights" commemoration that aims to "honor a tragedy long forgotten, and unknown to many people." passage b: trujillo, as the border of lights website explains, fed and nurtured anti-haitian sentiment and created an atmosphere that still excludes ethnic haitians from becoming part of "the dominican melting pot." the method his soldiers used in 1937 to try to identify those who would be killed was cruelly unique. when confronting someone in the lands along the border with haiti, they would hold up a sprig of parsley and ask what it was. if the person responded by trilling the "r" in perejil (spanish for parsley), he would be free to go. anyone who didn't trill the "r" was thought to be a haitian creole speaker—and was likely to be killed. how do these excerpts work together to develop a central idea?

These excerpts work together to develop a central idea by discussing that Memmott explains that the tragedy is not well known today and then shows why it is worth remembering.

1. Explain how Gatsby feels about love.
sdas [7]

Answer:

1. Gatsby certainly did love Daisy, and all she represented to him - -success, power, and glamor. She was the unattainable, his Dream. However, Gatsby creates this love for Daisy, just as he creates a fantasy life. She is integral to his dream for success.

number 2 is asking to apply YOUR own life. this one I can't answer.

3. t's about the costs of fantasy—inevitable costs, since our dreams and fantasies are part of who we are. ... (Gatsby, Nick concludes, made the mistake of “living too long with a single dream”; this makes him admirable, but also unwise, even delusional.) A kind of fatigue sets in.

4. However, I inferred you are referring to the article written by Joshua Rothman in the Newyorker entitled "The Serious Superficiality of The Great Gatsby".

5. 1) The American dream  2) Gatsby's love for Daisy

Explanation:

I would highly suggest you look at cliff notes or spark notes. I read this back in high school and The 2 sites were very helpful with answering questions like this! hope this helps.
