What is the effect of the following description from chapter one: The windows were ajar and gleaming white against the fresh gra

ss outside that seemed to grow a little way into the house. A breeze blew through the room, blew curtains in at one end and out the other like pale flags, twisting them up toward the frosted wedding-cake of the ceiling, and then rippled over the wine-colored rug, making a shadow on it as wind does on the sea.

Answer:

- Engross the readers in the narrative and pose the lighthearted tone by using descriptive diction and expressive imagery.

Explanation:

As per the question, the effect or impact that Fitzgerald wishes to create through the given description is to engulf the readers in the plot of the story and establish the tone that would provide the readers with a specific perspective to view the text and feel about it.

He employs descriptive words like (frosted wedding-cake, wine..colored rug) along with the vivid imagery (like pale flags, gleaming white..fresh grass') that assists the readers to visualize and experience themselves being present in the room and connect to it effectively. Along with that, he combines the natural with the artificial reflected through the invoking images of breeze('blew through the room') and grass('seemed to grow'). The flowy composition of sentences and the words like 'fresh and rippled' connotes a cheery and blithe tone.

How to summarize a story and explain the different conflicts
fomenos

You take a story and explain the entire thing with only a couple paragraphs, and you don't want to give away any special details that way a person can know a little about the book and want to read it. Like a "A dog and His Ball" is about a lost dog who doesn't have a family and finds an old ball to play with. You would put this on the back of a book and then people would be drawn to read this book. ( I just made something up so it may not make sense sorry.)

I'm not really sure I understand what you are asking, but I tried to answer the best I could, please let me know if this isn't what you meant.
