I think it was named the bald eagle because of the contrast in colors. The body is brown and the head is white, like you said, so when it is flying it looks bald because the head is lighter. I think that might be the reason

After reading the novel "The Great Gatsby" by F. Scott Fitzgerald, we can match the minor characters to their descriptions in the following manner:

  • Meyer Wolfsheim - Business associate of Gatsby's who appears broken over Gatsby's death, but does not attend his funeral.
  • Owl Eyes - The only fellow to show to Gatsby's funeral besides Nick and Gatsby's father.
  • Klipspringer - After Gatsby's death, he calls Nick at Gatsby's house because he wants to collect his shoes. He refuses an invitation to Gatsby's funeral.

<h3>What is a minor character?</h3>
  • Minor characters are less important than the main characters in a story, but they still contribute to the development of the plot and, sometimes, even take part in conflicts.
<h3 /><h3>The minor characters in "The Great Gatsby":</h3>
  • Wolfsheim, Owl Eyes, and Klipspringer are minor characters, which means they are not as important and do not appear as much as Gatsby, Daisy, Tom, and Nick, for example.
  • Wolfsheim is Gatsby's business partner. In other words, he is also a criminal. Although he likes Gatsby very much, he does not attend his funeral.
  • Owl Eyes is a man who wears spectacles and appears to be intoxicated in one of Gatsby's parties. Nick meets him in the library of the mansion. Surprisingly, he is the only one who actually cares about Gatsby's death enough to show up to the funeral.
  • Klipspringer is a musician who lived at Gatsby's mansion. However, that is not enough to make him care about his death. He was most likely just enjoying the comfort and the easy life Gatsby provided him with.

The poem is "Leaves of Grass" by Walt Whitman
serg [7]

The correct answer is: Free Verse.

Walt Whitman's "Leaves of Grass" is a collection of poems that was first published in 1855. Since then Whitman rewrote and added material. In over four decades of work, Whitman produced many well-known poems such as 'Song of Myself' or 'I Sing the Body Electric'. With the exception of one particular composition, all poems in this collection were written in free verse, whithout following the traditional standards for meter and rhyme. In that sense, Whitman's greatest legacy is the renovation of form. It's important to recognize that, despite the freedom of verses, many lines in Whitman's production approach iambic meter, which is a very classical form. That is because the iambic meter produces a very natural sound, like in conversation, as Whitman intended because of his democratic and philosophical view.
