English

Answer: c. Jackson lived for an eternity in a two-room, ramshackle house.

Hyperbole is a rhetorical device in which the author exaggerates in a way that is not meant to be taken literally. The purpose is to create a strong, lasting impression in the reader. In this example, option C is using hyperbole by describing Jackson as having lived "an eternity" in the house. As we know that people do not live eternally, we know that the author does not mean this literally. Instead, he is trying to convey that the amount of time is a very long one.

Snowcat [4.5K]

Explanation:

The first is that he does not understand the American class system and thinks that mere wealth will gain him acceptance into the old money circles exemplified by East Egg and the Buchanans. In his desire to be accepted into that society and in his inability to realize that he never will be, he is foolish.
