Oduvanchick [21]

1. How is the behavior of the characters linked to the hottest day of the summer?

Answer: The hot weather symbolizes the tension between the characters and foreshadows the conflict that will ensue.

Explanation:

In <em>"the Great Gatsby"</em>, F.Scott Fitzgerald's novel, Jay Gatsby is desperately in love with Daisy, his ex-girlfriend. Although Daisy is a married woman now and a mother, Gatsby does everything he can to get her attention - he throws parties, arranges their meetings, etc.

The story of the love triangle that includes Daisy, Gatsby and Daisy's husband, Tom, reaches its climax in Chapter 7. On the hottest day of the summer, there is a lunch at Tom and Daisy's house, which is where the tension starts to grow. Everyone is on edge.

2. What does Tom discover that unnerves him, and how does he discover it?

Answer: Tom discovers that there is something going on between Daisy and Gatsby. His theory is confirmed when he sees the two of them exchanging looks.

Explanation:

At Tom and Daisy's house, Gatsby and Daisy's feelings for one another become quite obvious. Bored, Daisy proposes that Gatsby and her go to the city. The two of them look at each other passionately, which all serves as a sign for Tom that something is, indeed, going on between the two of them. Tom is stressed out upon this discovery, and he proposes that all of them, including Nick and Jordan, should go to the city together.

3. What does Gatsby understood about Daisy’s voice that Nick does not?

Answer: Gatsby understood that her voice is "full of money." She does not know how it feels to be poor, which is reflected both in her voice and behavior.

Explanation:

In Chapter 7, Nick is trying to figure out why he is so fascinated about Daisy's voice. Nick is unable to reach any conclusion, until Gatsby describes her voice as<em> "full of money."</em> What this actually means is that her voice reflects her personality - she is used to having money and does not even know how it feels to be poor. Unlike Gatsby and Nick who had to struggle to gain wealth (and Nick still does), Daisy has always been rich and financially secure. As it will turn out at the end of the novel, to Daisy, money is more important than love. She would rather stay with the man she does not love and blame Myrtle's murder on Gatsby, than admit fault.

4. In what cars do the five of them travel into the city?

Answer: Gatsby and Daisy take Tom's blue coupe, while Tom, Nick and Jordan take Gatsby's yellow car.

Explanation:

As mentioned before, in Chapter 7, on the hottest day of the summer, Tom suggests that the five of them - Gatsby, Daisy, Jordan, Nick and him - go to the city together. The tension between the love triangle increases. Tom, Nick and Jordan take Gatsby's car, while Daisy and Gatsby take Tom's car. They all end up in an apartment at the Plaza Hotel, where Tom and Gatsby start to argue.

In what ways does Okonkwo change over the course of the chapters in part 1 of "Things Fall Apart" by Achebe?
Gennadij [26K]

he was angry at his father and how he acted, so he vowed to never be like his father. unlike his dad, who was weak and a freeloader, okonkwo was quite the opposite of him and was very successful. he was obsessed with being successful. he was very arrogant and didn't take much care of his wives and children, which eventually turned on him when things went bad in the second part. the end of the first part is when okonkwo is caught in a bad situation and ends up being thrown out his motherland for 7 years. this is very different, especially for a man who was used ot being well respected and praised.
