Is Gatsby an Oxford man? Explain.

English
1 answer:
stiks02 [169]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

We could say that Gatsby created a picture of himself is an Oxford man.

One of the best evidences which determines Gatsby an Oxford man is a description from the book which refers to Jay Gatsby.

<em>"About Gatsby! No, I haven't. I said I'd been making a small investigation of his past." </em>

<em> "And you found he was an Oxford man," said Jordan helpfully. </em>

<em> "An Oxford man!" He was incredulous. "Like hell he is! He wears a pink suit.</em>

However, he isn't really an Oxford man. He tries to represent him like that in order to impress Daisy Buchanan and renew his relationship with her. With this status, he tries to include himself as a part of elite society, so that the members of the society could accept him as a rich intellectual. His attempts to be an Oxford man aren't convincing enough, so, despite all his efforts, we couldn't say he is a real example of an Oxford man.

Penn commits a tort while acting in the interest of her undisclosed principal. Who is responsible or liable? Principal and agent
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

Principal Only.

Explanation:

The word 'tort' is borrowed from Latin word 'tortum' which means 'wrong, or injustice.' Thus, the word tort means to cause an injury or harm to someone or someone's property.

Tort is committed in many ways. <u>'Agency Relationship Liability Tort'</u> is the type of tort in which a principal and an agent is required. In such torts, a principal will be held responsible directly in cases when he fails to supervise his agent, when he directly commands his agent to commit tort, or when he neglects to check the background of the agent while hiring.

<u>In the given case, the unnamed principal will be held directly responsible for guiding Penn to commit tort. Because Penn committed tort in the interest of her undisclosed principal</u>.

Thus the correct answer is 'Principal Only.'

Which of the following is a complex sentence?
elena55 [62]
For this I would choose the first choice, A. "Eileen bought pants but not a new jacket."

A complex sentence is formed by an independent and a dependent clause. An independent clause is a part of a sentence that can still be a sentence on it's own. For example, "Eileen bought pants." could be a valid sentence. 

A dependent clause is the opposite, and is a part of a sentence that can not still be a sentence on it's own. "But not a new jacket." is not a valid sentence.

I hope this was helpful.
