Answer:

The adjective clause in the sentence is "which inspired Francis Scott Key".

Explanation:

Adjective clauses are those groups of words or phrases that modify the nature of the noun. They are dependent clauses describing the noun to modify them. They usually have a subject and a verb in it.

From the above provided sentence,

<em>The tattered flag, </em><em>which inspired Francis Scott Key</em><em>, was on display at the museum</em>

"the tattered flag" is the noun. The dependent clause that works in support of the noun is "which inspired Francis Scott Key". This clause has a subject "francis Scott Key" as well as a verb "inspired'. Thus, the adjective clause in the sentence is "which inspired Francis Scott Key".

According to the study, what did John Steinbeck do to prepare for his book The Grapes of Wrath ?
Fittoniya [83]

"Grapes of Wrath", is a novel written by John Steinbeck and it was published in 1939. This is the best-known and most popular story written by the author and it won a Pulitzer Prize in 1940. "Grapes of Wrath" tells the story of a family from the Dust Bowl in Oklahoma who hit by the Great Depression, are forced to leave their homes to seek a better future in California. Along the way, this family faces many adventures and also many hardships and most importantly, they face the effects of poverty and lack of opportunity that has affected an entire country. One of the main purposes of  Steinbeck while writing "Grapes of Wrath", aside from showing the obvious devastation called by the Dust Bowl and the Great Depression, especially in Oklahoma, was to criticize the way that the lands had been used to generate profit, instead of thinking about policies to keep the people fed. In order for him to be able to portray the struggles faced in "Grapes of Wrath", one thing that Steinbeck did was visit migrants camps and share time in the small populations and establishments created by migrants in tents. There, he came face to face with the horrors being lived by these people and that was the fodder he used to write this great novel.

THE GREAT GATSBY Chapter 2: Valley of Ashes KEY QUESTION: How does Fitzgerald create the dreary and depressing mood of Chapter 2
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

Please find answers to the various sub-questions below :

Explanation:

1) He creates the dreary mood by using words to give a vivid description; words that paint a mental picture of the dilapidated state of the Valley of Ashes as well as a description of the type of people who live there. This vivid description helps  gives the reader a mental picture of the place.

2) The author uses the word 'Ash' in a very descriptive way in chapter 2. Just as ashes represent the smouldering decay/embers of fire, the Valley of Ashes signifies the rot and hopeless situation of a place which has become a dumpsite of sorts.

2b) He likens the place to a farm where ashes grows like wheat; where moulds of ash are as high as houses; where men covered head to toe with ash work and walk slowly and sluggishly without motivation.  

But perhaps the strongest piece of textual evidence is the description of Mr Wilson, the husband of Myrtle. The author describes him as 'spiritless' - almost lifeless with hair and clothing covered turned gray by the ash

3) The train stops at the Valley of Ashes because it is along the route that connects the Industrialised West Egg and East Egg. It is strategically located as a connection point located half way between industrialised West Egg and East Egg.

4) This is the setting where Nick meets with Tom's mistress because the said mistress Myrtle Wilson, lives with her husband George Wilson Above a gas station in the Valley of Ashes ,

5) The dilapidated billboard showing the mighty eyes of Doctor T.J Eckleburg overlooking the Valley of Ashes symbolises the eyes of the Almighty who is watching and seeing the ongoing activities, people, rot and decay of the Valley of Ashes
