1. "The Great Gatsby" is set during 1922 in West and East Egg, which are two (fictional) towns on Long Island. As such, Fitzgerald depicts a lavish life during the decade of the Roaring 20s, shown by Gatsby's extravagant parties.

2. The narrator of the story is Nick Carraway, who moves into West Egg, just next door to Mr. Gatsby. Carraway is from the Midwest, attended Yale, and is a war veteran. He becomes friends with Gatsby, and initially arranges a meeting between Gatsby and Daisy.

3. Before marrying her husband (Tom), Daisy Buchanan had a relationship with Gatsby. She is also Carraway's second cousin. Daisy is described as a "flapper," which is a young woman specifically from the Roaring 20s, regarded as fashionable and not overly concerned with conventional behavior (aka, acting like a "lady.").

Answer:

For background reading, the most helpful option would be to research Option A: reading the various theories for why doughnuts are called "doughnuts."

Explanation:

The history of the doughnut is contested because many cultures have a food that involves a practice of frying some version of sweetened dough as a dessert or a snack. For example, in Spain (and many Latin American countries) there is the churro, and the tradition of making sufganiyot goes back centuries in the Mizrahi Jewish culture. With the focus on doughnuts from the start you would gain some valuable background information to start researching your paper. Many doughnut aficionados believe the American doughnut was adapted from Dutch immigrants in New York who made their traditional oliebollen.
