Answer: Symbolism takes something that is usually concrete and associates or affixes it to something else in order to give it a new and more significant meaning.
So you need something like this, I am going to try to give a format and you can fill in the blanks:
What makes the American Dream so real in the eyes of Americans everwhere? What is the desired goal of each and every USA citizen who believes in this idealistic goal? In (insert author name) Great Gatsby, the author portrays his ides of the American dream through (insert characters or plot of story here). The story is about (give a one sentence explanation of the story, be sure their are no run on sentences.) (Add here what you think the story's conflict is in one or two sentences.) While the Author of the book gibes a clear understanding of the American dream, I (here you add your own take on what you believe the American dream. Make sure you add the fact of wether you support the authors take on the American dream or not!)
Your ending sentence should be something that hooks your audience into hour first paragraph, and done! Depending on why type of essay your writing, you may want to tweak some of the sentences around, but that is pretty much it!
Answer:
secondary source
Explanation:
An encyclopedia entry about the Battle of Gettysburg is considered a secondary source of information.
The Battle of Gettysburg was fought from July 1 to July 3, 1863, in and around the town of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, by Union and Confederate forces during the American Civil War. The battle involved the largest number of casualties of the entire war and is often described as the war's turning point.
An encyclopedia is considered a secondary and even tertiary source. It is secondary because it does not include first-hand account of the (historical) events, and it is considered tertiary because it mostly quotes/cites other secondary sources such as journals, newspaper articles, books etc.
A primary source consists of only first-hand accounts of the experiences and events.
A secondary source consists of analyses, critical essays about first-hand accounts (primary sources).
