Two symbols that are important in The Great Gatsby are the color green and a clock. Green is important as it represents money and Gatsby's hope. These two ideas are tied together because Gatsby believes that if he builds himself into a rich enough person, Daisy will take notice and come back to him. Green is also the color of the light at the end of Daisy's dock which acts as a symbol for her and the love Gatsby is holding out for her. At the end of the novel it says "Gatsby believed in the green light, the orgastic future that year by year recedes before us." This quote shows that the light represents hope, but that that hope keeps getting further and further away instead of getting closer. In the same way money can be lost, so can the promise of the future you want. Green ties these ideas together to symbolize Gatsby's hope.
The clock on Nick's mantle also serves as an important symbol for time. Gatsby is trying to make up time when he meets Daisy again, and a reoccurring theme in the novel is that you can't repeat the past. When Gatsby and Daisy meet again for the first time in many years, Gatsby knocks Nick's clock off its mantle. This represents the time that he and Daisy have lost, and how it is going to slip away from them again. Later, Gatsby says "‘Can’t repeat the past?’ he cried incredulously. ‘Why of course you can!’" in response to Nick's telling him that it would be impossible to do just that. This falling clock shows how desperate Gatsby is to make up that time and how precarious trying to do that is.

Answer:
The correct answer is B. The square root of 36.
Explanation:
If you figure out the square roots of the numbers, you will see the pattern's sequence is simply decreasing by 1 from 10. For the first number, the square root of 100 is 10, because 10 squared or 10 x 10 is equal to 100. After 9, we have the square root of 64 which is 8, and 8 squared or 8 x 8 = 64. Then after 7, it would be the square root of 36 which is 6, because 6 squared or 6 x 6 = 36. Having the sequence be 10, 9, 8, 7, and then finally 6. Remember when dealing with squaring numbers, it's a number multiplied by itself, and with square roots, you find that number and divided it by the given product to get the exact same number. If you need clarification on the difference, please feel free to ask me.
Answer:
The sense that nature has taken over a once-urban area.
Explanation:
Mythical kingdom is possible (<em>towers & god-roads) </em>but a small mythical kingdom doesn´t make sense to me.
A preindustrial society is said to be in harmony with nature.
The feeling of an ancient village is not provoked by towers; that word, together with stone or metal could show a once-urban area that has been taken over by nature (wild cats that roam... many pigeons)
