Fitzgerald uses white to represent purity and innocence and the figures of speech give the passage a light mood along with the image of floating girls.
<h3>Analyzing the passage from "The Great Gatsby"</h3>
We can develop the answer and analyze the passage as follows:
- Fitzgerald uses color to represent different feelings. In the passage, he uses white to convey a sense of purity and innocence, as if the narrator is entering heaven.
- He uses simile in "like pale flags" and metaphor in "the frosted-cake of the ceiling." "The whip and snap of the curtains" is an onomatopoeia, representing sound. Such figures of speech give the passage a light and vivacious mood.
- One image that is quite appealing is that of the girls being balloons, floating around the house and then slowly coming back to the floor. This image conveys a sense of joy and wonder, as if there is something magical about those girls.
- A sound that would fit the situation is "whoosh" because of the wind coming in through the windows and moving everything around the room.

Answer:
<u>it referred to America's unfinished work to win the fight against racism</u>
Explanation:
Remember, when President Lincoln made the statement,
<em>"It is for us, the living, rather, to be dedicated here to </em><em>the unfinished work</em><em>...that this nation, under God, </em><em>shall have a new birth of freedom</em><em> — and that, government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth." </em>
The "Men of Honor" movie focuses on the life of a black Navy officer (Carl Brashear ) who had to struggle with racism in the navy until he gained national recognition for his bravery.
The actual “new birth of freedom" that Lincoln envisioned was one where each citizen is treated equally and fairly by other citizens, a responsibility many want to follow.
