Answer: When the Arabs searched the Alchemist, they found the Elixir of Life/Immortality and they found the Philosophers Stone. They allowed the Alchemist to keep these treasures because they did not believe that the Alchemist truly had those treasures. The Alchemist even says in the story: "When you posess great treasures within you, and try to tell others of them, seldom are you believed" (Coelho 138).

Hope This Helps! :)

I think the Arabs think that Santiago and the alchemist are spies. They allowed Santiago and the alchemist to keep the treasure because both have claimed that treasure doesn't have to be something material. The treasure can be something spiritual.

2. Why do Tom and Nick stop in the Valley of Ashes on their way to the city? How does

lawyer [7]

Answer:

Tom and Nick stopped at the Valley of Ashes to met Myrtle Wilson, Tom's mistress.

Nick feels that he'd been forced to meet her and felt that Tom hadn't even told him beforehand or given him any choice to meet her.

Explanation:

F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel "The Great Gatsby" revolves around the story of Jay Gatsby and his lost American Dream. The novel also focuses on the themes of wealth, social class, love, appearance, and reality, etc. through the characters.

In Chapter 2, Nick recalls how Tom "literally forced" him to met Myrtle Wilson, his mistress. Tom felt that Tom's approach of his "company (is) bordered on violence" and that Tom had the "supercilious assumption [...] that on Sunday afternoon I had nothing better to do." This shows how Nick was unprepared and even maybe felt coerced to meet the woman, despite not expressing any desire to be acquainted with her.
