Hello,

I think you are talking about Sugar Changed the World.  

"Nina was always a mysterious figure in the family: beautiful as a movie star, cosmopolitan and elegant, with wide Slavic cheeks. She spoke only Russian, though she lived much of her adult life in Tel Aviv. There were rumors that she came from nobility and that she had once been very rich. She and Avram were thought of as a glamorous couple—he the charming man with his head in the clouds (in Yiddish the word for that kind of person is luftmensh, "air man''), she the mysterious beauty who had given up everything to be with him."

Answer:

In this passage, the author presents background information about Nina by providing us personal information about her and historical facts about her life; he also describes the mystery,  controversial and weirds topics that have been taking place during her life.  


His 2nd porpuse was to show how Nina was able to mislead people: We can see how she was able to trick people, she was a liar: she spoke Russian, but she knew speak Hebrew.


Next time, please, add the passage. :) Thanks!

How does F. Scott Fitzgerald use his characters and story to show the gains and losses in pursuing wealth and upward mobility br
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer and Explanation:

F. Scott Fitzgerald uses the characters to show how dreaming about something changes the entire psychological and emotional construction of an individual, leading him to the despair that makes him do anything to achieve that dream, even something immoral and improper. This is clear in Gatsby, who through his dream of social ascension, ends up taking very immoral attitudes, these attitudes are reinforced by his dream of being with Daisy. This quest for ascension and achievement becomes more and more desperate, because it seems increasingly distant, even though Gatsby has already achieved most of his goals. F. Scott Fitzgerald shows how uncontrolled despair, guided by desire, can cause tragedies and irreparable losses, as happened with Gatsby, who so much pursued his goals in non-commendable ways, had a sad and undesirable ending.
