The statement that best describes Darrow's viewpoint of the case is 2. In that statement, Darrow presents <em>"various reasons"</em> to provide a lighter sentence to the boys and he expressed that, in his view, <em>"no crime deserved such a terrible punishment"</em>. The other statements convey other ideas related to the case but do not describe Darrow's viewpoint of the case.

hi I need ideas on what to write for a topic that goes like- Write a story in which a train ticket plays an important part
il63 [147K]

Answer:

You could do something like, there was a kid who was sent to ride the train and go to their relative to give them something. On the way there the character decides to help someone who fell so the character sets down their things including the ticket to help the person back up. Unfortunately a thief came by and stole the ticket. The character grabs their belongings and runs after the thief but as they were doing that the train was leaving. The character was to be back by 5 pm and that wouldn't be possible if they took another train, and they don't have the money to purchase another one. Nor does the character have a way back home. So they wander around and see a lady who is on the phone and she angrily throws the phone at the ground. She also throws her ticket. The character asks if she is alright and hands the lady her phone and ticket. The lady would be like "Yes, I'm fine" things like that and gives the character her ticket.

That's just one idea but hopefully it helps, and have a great day!

Describe the gradual revelation of Gatsby’s character. What do we learn about him and when? Why is this an appropriate way of le
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

Gatsby is something of an enigma for the beginning of the novel. It isn't until Nick and Daisy fit into the scene that Gatsby's character slowly comes out.

Explanation:

"The Great Gatsby" is a novel by American author F. Scott Fitzgerald. The story is narrated from a first-person perspective by Nick. He is Jay Gatsby's neighbor and Daisy's - Gatsby's love interest - cousin. <u>At first, Gatsby is an enigma to Nick and, consequently, to readers as well, since we only know what is narrated by him. However, as soon as Gatsby realizes Nick is related to Daisy, his character begins to be slowly revealed.</u>

<u>We get to know about Gatsby's made-up story of his past in Chapter 4</u>. He claims to be the inheritor of his parents' fortune, to have traveled the world, and to have attended Oxford. He even has a real picture to prove it. However, even though he did attend Oxford, it was for only five months as it was an opportunity given to some army officials. Gatsby takes half-truths and embellishes them to make his life more impressive. He's ashamed to have grown up poor.

<u>Gatsby's true story is told in Chapter 6 </u>as per Nick's decision. He could have told it later, in Chapter 8, when Gatsby told him the story, following the real chronology of events. <u>He chooses to do it earlier because he doesn't want readers to misjudge Gatsby. And it works.</u> We get to know how poor and ambitious Gatsby was as a child, how meeting Daisy made him work even harder for fortune and a chance to be with her, how his criminal choices were all made with a pure heart.
