Answer:

A. They make Nick feel as though Gatsby is lying, and he dislikes him.

Explanation:

F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel "The Great Gatsby" tells the story of not the narrator Nick Carraway but rather his neighbor Jay Gatsby. Though the story is told from the perspective of Nick, we also get a detailed account of the numerous characters in the story.

In Chapter IV of the story, we see Nick and Jay in conversation about his past, how he had managed to become the man he is today. Along the car ride, Gatsby tells him his upbringing and how he had come with such wealth. Though at first Nick seem to find it hard to believe, when Gatsby produced the slug and the photo from his days in the army, Nick seemed to accept the tale as the truth.

Particularly interesting is Gatsby's claim of having been from Oxford and his medals from service during the war, and more significantly the claim that he was "<em>like a young rajah in all the capitals of Europe</em>" all made Nick find it hardly probable. He had to suppress a laughter after hearing all these claims from Jay.

Do you think that being an American comes with guaranteed or "automatic" success? Why or why not?
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

While being American does gauratee to an extent certain priviledges, you can't be assured success in a world with laziness and poverty. One does not know who they are going to be birthed from. It could be a wealthy person, or it could be the exact opposite. Now, one who starts off  in a poor family can still end sucsessfull, it's all in the amount of effort you put into life. One who grew up wealthy could end up in the streets. Maybe it's not even that they end up poor but perhaps lonely and tired or maybe they become lazy and simply unwilling to do things. You see, success isn't about where you are from, it's about your attitude towards life, your goals. Whereas one may think something like money or "being American" may garatee your success, success isn't always about your career. You can't be successful with a fallen marriage and broken relationsip with your children. Success comes from inside.
