What sentence I’m confused
Answer:
We could say that Gatsby created a picture of himself is an Oxford man.
One of the best evidences which determines Gatsby an Oxford man is a description from the book which refers to Jay Gatsby.
<em>"About Gatsby! No, I haven't. I said I'd been making a small investigation of his past."
</em>
<em>
"And you found he was an Oxford man," said Jordan helpfully.
</em>
<em>
"An Oxford man!" He was incredulous. "Like hell he is! He wears a pink suit.</em>
However, he isn't really an Oxford man. He tries to represent him like that in order to impress Daisy Buchanan and renew his relationship with her. With this status, he tries to include himself as a part of elite society, so that the members of the society could accept him as a rich intellectual. His attempts to be an Oxford man aren't convincing enough, so, despite all his efforts, we couldn't say he is a real example of an Oxford man.

Answer:
C. Every time a certain church bell rings, something terrible happens to Guy
Explanation:
In english, we say that an element is supernatural when it cannot be explicable by scientific laws and therefore cannot be proven as real. Examples of supernatural things are: miracles, ghosts, angels, demons, ufos, superstitions.
Looking at the options we have, option C mentions that every time a certain church bell rings, something terrible happens to Guy. We can see that this is an example of superstition since something terrible is related to the fact that the bell rings or not. Thus, this is an example of a supernatural element.
Options A and D don't have supernatural elements (a haunted house is made by people so it's not supernatural). Option B has the luck element but it's just a thought the Dr has and not really a supernatural element.
