Nick means that people can fit into only one of these four categories, which show that no one is truly happy in their lives. 

Gatsby and Tom are the pursuing, Daisy is the pursued, Jordan is the busy (too busy to care about anyone else or being a good person), and Nick is tired. He's tired of having to deal with everyone else's drama and problems.

Answer:

The correct answer is Nick means that there are different kinds of people and some are willing to do things and some are just to lazy to do stuff.

Explanation:

The excerpt belongs to The Great Gatsby, a novel written by American author Francis Scott Fitzgerald. The novel is about Jay Gatsby, a millionaire who is an important figure in the society, so he is the pursued as well as Jordan; on the other hand Gatsby is pursuing Daysi, pursuing people are chasing something or someone; busy people are always doing something; the tired almost never do anything.

arlik [135]

Answer :

C. The last line from 'Stolen Day' says about the narrator that he was feeling embarrassed by his family. The narrator's worst fear of being laughed at and being embarrassed by his family members had come true and he was at the center of their mockery again. He had just caught a giant carp fish from the dam and came home running with it and then he said that he had inflammatory rheumatism. But he did not realize that a person suffering from inflammatory rheumatism is not capable of this physical feat that he had just accomplished.
