An apostrophe used as a contraction replaces a letter such as 'can't' the apostrophe replaces the 'o' in 'not' another common example would be 'it's' as in 'it is'. The apostrophe replaces the 'i' in 'is'.
 To show possession take the noun and add an apostrophe and an 's' such as 'Mrs. Noble's friend' The apostrophe and the 's' show possession. If the noun is plural or already ends in an 's' do not put an 's' again. For example 'the birds' tree is lovely' Birds as in many birds if it was one bird it would be 'the bird's tree is lovely'
Hope this helps! good luck :)

What are the obstacles standing in the way of a beautiful, dreamy love affair between Daisy and Jay?
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

Daisy married Tom for his status and wealth and is not willing to leave the old money society for Jay Gatsby.

Explanation:

Although Daisy is and was in love with Jay Gatsby for a long time, she married Tom for financial reasons and prestige.<u> She is also staying married to him mostly for financial reasons.</u> Therefore, she can’t get into a real relationship with Gatsby.

<u>Daisy has decided to marry Tom while Jay was in the war as she wanted a husband that comes from the same class of the old money as she does.</u> Yet, when Jay Gatsby does get the money to win Daisy back, it is from his ties with gangsters that gave him a <u>bad reputation</u> and started rumors about him not having clean motives.

Finally, Daisy is obviously not willing to leave her lifestyle, old money society, and reputation for Jay Gatsby. It is clear he is in love with her more than he is in love with him, and that he would sacrifice it all for their relationship. On the other hand, Daisy is too fond of her life to lose it over the man she loves.
