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

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?

Coincides means for something to basically happen at the same time. The passage mentions how money is America’s god and business people. The author is talking about how black power would make them money because it goes well together and will benefit them. These two thing coincide with each other very well. That’s where the quote “ business people can dig black power if it coincides with green power...”


Hope that helps <3

Read the excerpt from "A Pair of Silk Stockings."
Tpy6a [65]

Answer: B) to help the reader visualize Mrs. Sommers setting herself apart from the more crowded bargain area of the store.

Explanation: In the given excerpt from "A Pair of Silk Stockings" we can see the description of how Mrs. Sommers sat before a counter, to rest and gain strength and courage to confront the multitude again. The author uses the expression "comparatively deserted" to describe the counter where Mrs. Sommers sits to help the reader visualize Mrs. Sommers setting herself apart from the more crowded bargain area of the store, the counter where she seats is empty, compared to the rest of the store.
