D.Wealth cannot buy friendship.

Gatsby's focus on wealth and the ostentatious lead many people to be "friends" with him. Rather they took advantage of his desire to belong to high society and enjoyed his lavish parties. In this scene, the speaker and his father are at Gatsby's funeral waiting for other's to attend. No one arrives. Even though Gatsby seemed to have people around him, no one was actually enough of a friend to attend his funeral. This further shows that wealth cannot buy friendship.

20 POINTS PLEASE HELP!Based on your reading of the following passage, in what ways do the events of 9/11 provide a good example
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

Both immediate and longer term industry responses to the security failures related to transportation showed

that various security holes existed between businesses in transportation chains from all modes and that many

transportation businesses were unaware of how other links in their chain handled safety issues, or if they did at all.

The regulation concerns areas that present safety concerns and may cause loss of life.

The inability of players in transportation chains to identify who was handling safety issues and how they were handling them

highlights a need for clarification of duties and roles within the industry.

The

investigation of the 9/11 events have further highlighted widespread and serious security flaws in the transportation

industry, such as the lack of regulation of flight schools and the use of water transportation to ship potentially lethal

items such as explosives. Unfortunately, the various security precautions that have placed a financial burden on

transportation companies change frequently and are often ineffective.

Naturally, our peace loving country not wishing to take the initiative of breaking the pact could not resort to perfidy
fgiga [73]

Answer:

A moral dilemma is shown here

Explanation:

Starting with the last word, <em>perfidy </em>is a deliberate breach of faith or trust; in the context of war - we can assume that this the case because of the word <em>peace</em><em> loving country</em> - perfidy can actually lead to warcrimes, like waving a white flag and then kill the enemy.

So the moral dilemma is that a country is very likely to be uncomfortable with a pact, the other side probably being a bit of a war loving country, but diplomatic relations deny the possibility of breaking the pact.

The part <em>not wishing to take the initiative of breaking the pact </em>is, if I´m not mistaken, a subordinate adjective clause that refers to the noun <em>country</em>.

So this country, not wishing etc., could not resort to perfidy either. Because that would be even worse, considering the fact that it is a peace loving country.

Greeley [361]
