How does myrtle wilson’s life differ from daisy buchanan’s

English
1 answer:
Burka [1]2 years ago
3 0
Myrtle and Gatsby have one thing in common: they're both trying to rise above their station. Like Gatsby, Myrtle isn't happy with the class she was born to. She insists that she married beneath her, and she tries to talk about the "lower orders" as though she's not one of them: "I told that boy about the ice." Myrtle raised her eyebrows in despair at the shiftlessness of the lower orders. "These people! You have to keep after them all the time" (2.69).

So, what makes Gatsby and Myrtle different? Gatsby is a tragic hero, while Myrtle, in Fitzgerald's portrait, is a ridiculous fool. Is it that Gatsby strives out of love, while Myrtle does it out of greed? Or is it simply because Gatsby is a man—and Myrtle had the tragedy of being born a woman?

(link attached) What is meant by the last line of the text? How did the Maginot Line serve as an example of this saying? Support
NikAS [45]

Hello. You did not enter the line of text to which this question refers. However, when researching your question, I was able to find a question like yours and realized that the line of text you forgot to present was “Generals always fight the last war”.

Answer and Explanation:

The line “Generals always fight the last war” means the existence of a faith that successful attitudes in the past will be equally successful in the present, even though the present and the past are completely different realities. The Maginot line serves as an example for this sentence because it achieved its goal of protecting France from German invasion during the First World War. Because of this success, it was used again as a strategy in the second world war. However, the two wars were very different, as were the German strategies, which meant that the Maginot line was no longer able to provide any protection to France, which was invaded by Germany.

What does the wedding guest do after the mariners story in Samuel Taylor Coleridges the rime of the ancient mariner
mylen [45]

The correct answer is B) He leaves the wedding party, stunned by the tale he hears. As it happened, the wedding man actually went home in the end, instead of going to the wedding. Although the story did make him unhappy, he was satisfied to have become wiser, that is why the last line describes him as a sadder and a wiser man.



You're welcome.

zlopas [31]

Answer: A. The Germans often sent important messages concerning their war efforts to their ambassador in Washington, D.C.

Explanation: Readers who make inferences use the clues in the text along with their own experiences to help them figure out what is not directly said. Inference also involves using what you know to make a guess about what you know or reading between the lines.
