Rina8888 [55]

Answer: The author is emphasizing the sense of loss that Della must feel when she realizes she can’t use them

Explanation:

Here's the remainder of the question:

What is the purpose of the author’s description of the beauty of the combs?

a The author is emphasizing the sense of loss that Della must feel when she realizes she can’t use them.

b. This description is included as a part of the setting of the story.

c. The author is contrasting Della’spoverty with her extravagant tastes.

d. The author wants the reader to understand Jim’s disappointment in Della..

From the excerpt, we can deduce that Della had always worshipped and craves for the beautiful combs, which were pure tortoise shell, and had jewelled rims which she could use for her hair.

We are further told that even though the conbs were expensive, and that she had craved and yearned for them, she has them now but that the tresses that would have adorned the coveted adornments were gone.

This illustrates the sense of loss that Della must feel when she realizes she can’t use them.

While Tom is a college friend, and Daisy is a second cousin once
Sladkaya [172]

Even though this question has no options, I will provide you with an answer that will most likely be helpful.

Answer:

"Across the courtesy bay the white palaces of fashionable East Egg glittered along the water, and the history of the summer really begins on the evening I drove over there to have dinner with the Tom Buchanans. Daisy was my second cousin once removed, and I'd known Tom in college. And just after the war I spent two days with them in Chicago."

Explanation:

Nick is the narrator in the novel "The Great Gatsby" by F. Scott Fitzgerald. He is, in a way, the link that connects all the characters. Everyone relies on Nick to keep their secrets or to help them achieve their goals.

<u>It is in Chapter 1 that Nick explains his relationship with Tom and Daisy Buchanan. This is the piece of text evidence:</u>

<u>"Across the courtesy bay the white palaces of fashionable East Egg glittered along the water, and the history of the summer really begins on the evening I drove over there to have dinner with the Tom Buchanans. Daisy was my second cousin once removed, and I'd known Tom in college. And just after the war I spent two days with them in Chicago."</u>

Tom is a very wealthy, prejudiced man - a brute with a lot of money - who got to marry Daisy, a beautiful yet superficial girl. Daisy is Gatsby's love interest, and Nick will get caught in between their lies and love affairs.
