Answer:

Letter B

Explanation:

Although the general meaning of aspiration is <em>something somene aspires to be(come), </em>in this context the author didn't mean to imply that the Negro people aspired 'to become White'. This <em>old whispering</em> was more of an unsettling statement that echoed in their minds for many centuries. What they <em>believed</em> they should become in order to be better accepted in society.

Ambitions because if you were to switch the word from aspirations to ambition the meaning would be the same and the text wouldnt be changed

Analyze the statement “the holocaust was complete.” If the “holocaust” was complete when George Wilson dies, what do you think F
nika2105 [10]
<span>Nick uses the term "holocaust" because it was a spree of death to the people around him and even love. Daisy killed Myrtle, in return Tom told on Gatsby and Wilson killed Gatsby then himself. It was like a chain reaction. It was termed holocaust by Nick because to him I believe he thinks that the wrong people died, he knows the truth that Gatsby is innocent and he knows that the Myrtle thing was cause because of Tom having driven the yellow car earlier in the evening. It wasn't meant to happen that way but like the holocaust even the innocent die, for no good reason. I'm sure if we had our choice the only person that would have died would have been Tom, but yet he doesn't seem as such a horrible person to me anymore. I had mentioned how I see that love has died as well, the innocent love Gatsby has for Daisy now gone and left to her memory, the thoughtless love Tom had for Myrtle now gone as well, and the love Nick had for Jordan will never bee said. All innocent things that lead to the destruction of innocent people.</span><span>

His movements are slow through town in the three hours and figures out who Gatsby is a where he lives.</span><span>The holocaust is referring to the death of the main characters relationships, Gatsby and Daisy and Tom</span>and Myrtle, and George and Myrtle

For me, this situation depicts the real life situation of every individual. The giant human maze represents life's struggle and problems which is faced by every person in his day to day activities. This can never be taken away from human existence. The challenges will always be a part of everybody's lives.
