The correct answer is:

nonfiction

Explanation:

Both of these texts are theoretical essays on writing and what constitutes a good, scholarly text. Essays fall into the section of nonfiction, which is why fiction is the incorrect answer here. Both of these are texts, essays, and not poetry or plays, which is why those answers are also incorrect. The texts give with what the writers can do to make their writing better. Non-fiction or nonfiction is content whose creator, in good faith, thinks responsibility for the truth or correctness of the events, people, or knowledge performed.

Jay Gatsby was born when James Gatz was 17 and met Dan Cody. Dan Cody then became Jay's mentor and best friend. after Dan died his money was supposed to go to Gatsby but Dan's mistress stepped in and took the money. At Gatsby's house where Nick is, a man named Sloane, a girl and Tom all stop by Gatsby's house. Then Gatsby thinking that Daisy loves him and not Tom taunts Tom and Tom gets mad. Then the girl invites Gatsby to dinner but when he goes upstairs to get dressed they leave.  The following Saturday Tom and Daisy both decide to come to Gatsby's party but Gatsby and Daisy go to Nick's house to be alone. A When they come back, Daisy and tom have an argument on how Gatsby got his money. Tom believes that he got it from bootlegging but Daisy thinks that he got it from the chain of drugstores that he owns. After Daisy and tom leave the party Gatsby finds Nick and tells him that he is unhappy because Daisy had an unpleasant time. Gatsby wants things to be like before he left and wants Daisy to leave Tom but Nick tells Gatsby that you can't re-create the past.

     The next Saturday instead of having a party, Gatsby locks himself up and fires all of his servants to prevent gossip and hires new mean servants. On the hottest day of the summer, Nick visits Daisy at her house and is surprised to see Gatsby and Jordan. Nick, Gatsby, Tom and Daisy all decide to go to New York together. Daisy and Gatsby ride in the Buchanan's car and Tom, Nick and Jordan ride in Gatsby's car. Tom stops for gas at Wilson's garage and Wilson asks for money because he knows that his wife is having an affair but he doesn't know with who and wants to move West. To cool off, the four of them go to the Plaza Hotel where Tom accuses Gatsby of lying about going to Oxford. Then Tom and Gatsby argue about who Daisy loves Tom or Gatsby. On the way back home, Tom, Jordan and Nick stop at Wilson's garage where a tragedy occurred. A yellow automobile struck and killed Myrtle. Nick, Jordan and Tom all know that the automobile was the one with Gatsby and Daisy in it. Later Nick finds Gatsby spying on Daisy to make sure that Tom does not hurt her. Gatsby also reveals that Daisy was driving and hit Myrtle. Still worried Gatsby tells Nick to go check on her and when he notices that Daisy and Tom have reconciled, he left.

     Chapter eight begins with Nick going to Gatsby's house after a sleepless night and gatsby tells Nick that nothing happened at Daisy's house. Nick then suggests that Gatsby leave long Island for a while but Gatsby says that he can't abandon daisy now. Gatsby finally tells Nick the history between him and Daisy. As Gatsby tells the story he is interrupted by his gardener who wants to drain the pool but gatsby wants to use it so he tells the gardener to wait a day. Since Nick was running late he left for his office. When he arrives at his office, Nick received a call from Jordan. After the call the story leads back to the tragedy with Myrtle. Wilson suspected that Myrtle had an affair with someone because he found a dog collar and bruises on Myrtle. Before Myrtle died, Wilson took her to the window and told her that you can't fool God and he thought that the eyes of Doctor T.J. Eckleburg were the eyes of God. Wilson also believed that whoever was having an affair with Myrtle killed Myrtle so he went to Gatsby's house. At Gatsby's house he shot Gatsby and himself.

     The final chapter begins with Nick dealing with the police and the photographers. After dealing with them he tries to call Daisy but they left with no forwarding address. Besides Daisy, Nick tries to find other friends and relatives of Gatsby but no one wants to pay their respects. Nick was able to delay the funeral until Gatsby's father, Mr. Gatz was able to arrive. Mr. Gatz also filled Nick in with Gatsby's early life. Shortly after the funeral, Nick decides to go back home. Before he leaves Nick meets Jordan one last time. Jordan says that Nick is just another careless driver like her. As Nick is leaving he bumps into Tom. Tom reveals that he was the one who told Wilson that it was Gatsby's car. Then the book ends with Nick on Gatsby's blue lawn looking at Daisy's green light.
