What is the meaning of the last line in the great gatsby?

English
1 answer:
Lostsunrise [7]3 years ago
7 0
In general the last paragraphs talk about the past. The last sentence is trying to tie up the whole meaning of the novel. Which was Gatsby desperately trying to turn back time and have what he used to have. He compares Gatsby's wonder to the wonder of the sailors who had once discovered the very land in which Gatsby's house stands. The wonder of him being able to see the green light at the end of the dock. The wonder that can never really happen again. But it highlights that Gatsby, and us are doing so ceaselessly. It is a struggle that would never end as we struggle towards turning back time to recapture a moment in our past.

Which passage is an example of inductive reasoning?
Galina-37 [17]

Answer is A. Marco believes that cowboy boots are cool. He sees many people on the street wearing them and decides to buy a pair for himself.

Inductive reasoning is the opposite of deductive reasoning. On one side, deductive reasoning begins with a general statement or idea, then evaluates and analyses the chances to arrive to a logical conclusion. On the other, inductive reasoning creates wide generalizations based on particular observations. Basically, there is information, and then conclusions are made based on that information.

In the case of Marco, he makes a particular observation (many people wear boots on the street), and then arrives to a conclusion (he assumes that boots are cool), so he decides to go with that (he buys himself a pair of boots).
