He is wealthy enough to live in West Egg but not wealthy enough to rent a very nice place.

Nick describes his place as "an eyesore". This detail shows us that the place he's renting is not nice in comparison to the other homes in West Egg. We also know that he must have some wealth in order to afford to pay eighty dollars a month during this time period. From this excerpt, there is no indication that Nick's choice to live in the small house is temporary or that he seems desperate to become part of the elite society. He may be impressed by material wealth because he describes the proximity of the millionaires as "consoling", so option A is also not a good choice.

Answer:

Narrative Essay

Explanation:

Sample Narrative Essay

The examples inform the readers about the writing style and structure of the narration. The essay below will help you understand how to create a story and build this type of essay in no time.

Introduction

The villagers had lost a few goats and poultry to a mystery. The mystery of the missing farm animals spread like a wildfire in the village. Many speculated there were thieves in the village while others suggested a wild beast was on the run. Despite several speculations, the mystery of the disappearances remained unsolved. The whole village was in a state of dismay when the tiger appeared and launched another attack on the village.

Body

The prey was not any farm animal this time, it was a young child playing by the barn. The villagers had had enough, they had to put a stop to it once and for all. They organized a group of the bravest men from the village, armed them with shotguns and knives, and planned to attack the tiger. They also took a goat to lure to the tiger in our trap.

The plan was to trap the tiger and later kill him. I was amongst the members of the group who left for the jungle late at night. For hours we did not hear anything except the mosquitoes and crickets around us. Then we found paw prints on the muddy ground which assured us of the tiger’s usual trail. Thereupon, as the sun rose we set up a trap using a goat as bait. We were assured that this would catch the tiger immediately.

We had almost given up when suddenly around daybreak we heard the bushes rustle and the leaves crackle. All of us shivered to our spines and saw the mystery east coming towards us. We changed our guns and pointed it towards the wild beast. We steadied our guns towards the tiger as he jumped to grab the goat. He fell into the trap. One of the members shot the tiger dead and we rescued the goat safely back to our village.

Conclusion

The mission was accomplished. We had killed the wild beast and had emerged successful. It was an amazing hunting trip. One that would always remain in my memory for all time to come.

Can someone please help me with an argumentative essay on the advantages of cell phones!!!!!!!!
Xelga [282]

Answer:

Hi! I don't know exactly what you want, but I can give you some tips and points to use.

POTENTIAL ARGUMENT POINTS:

- Safety : it is easy and fast to call emergency services

- Time-saving : being able to surf the web without a computer saves a lot of time, and time is money!

- Communication : cell phones keep us in touch with friends and loved ones

-World Access : We have the whole world at our fingertips and can connect to people around the globe.

TIPS:

- DO NOT FORGET A COUNTER ARGUMENT!!! For example, if you were arguing for the safety aspect, you could say something like, "Although it can be argued that cell phone use can cause harm to teens, cell phones contribute to a lot of kids' and teens' safety because ....blah blah blah."

- USE STATISTICS! Teachers eat that stuff up. Do not be afraid to just throw them into a paragraph to back something up.

That is pretty much all I can think of rn. Good luck! :)
