Tom Buchanan could be seen as a representative of the American Dream because his life is, for many, the ultimate goal. The American Dream is typically thought of as the possibility that, in America, anyone can start with nothing and, through their own hard hard work and perseverance, attain wealth and prosperity. Tom Buchanan is the pinnacle of wealth and prosperity; he has a lavish and elegant estate in East Egg, a beautiful and fashionable wife, and a team of polo ponies. Further, when people dream big—when they imagine what they would like to have and what they would like to be in their version of the American Dream—it could very likely be the success of someone like Tom that they imagine. Many people want all the things Tom has. People hope that achieving the American Dream will result in achieving Tom's life.

The above question wants a personal answer about your interpretation of the presented image. For this reason, I cannot write the answers for you, but I will show you information that will help you to answer them.

The image represents a Filipino cultural custom known as the Bayanihan.

<h3>What is Bayanihan?</h3>

It is the tradition of moving a house from one point to another.
It is held in the Philippines.
It is a way of encouraging cooperation and mutual help between individuals.
It is made to create bonds between the community.

Bayanihan is a tradition that shows cooperation and mutual care between people. This affects the lives of Filipinos by showing that we are all dependent on each other and that we should not withhold help from those who need it, but rather help them with joy.

This can influence literary production in a grand way, allowing both Filipino cultures to be explored and showing the importance of community and understanding between people.

Nataliya [291]

To me it means: Every choose you make, reflects on what take of person you are. Depending on what decisions you make in life it can either reflect poorly or good on your character. Your character is how other people will see you throughout this world and decided your reputation. Since “life is a matter of choices” like it states, you can choose how people view you through the decisions you make in life.

(sorry i couldn’t make it two paragraphs because I didn’t want to be repetitive but you can elaborate on my interpretation)
