Explanation:
With these words, said by one of the characters of the novel, Nick, who was referring to Tom and Daisy, Fitzgerald is criticizing the ruthless, selfish and greedy nature of these two characters: they do as they please, have no consideration for others, do harm on purpose, and simply walk away from the mess they make and go back to their materialistic way of living.

Answer:
C. A speech designed only to give information
Answer: While the priest seemed disinterested and implied he could not go with the man, he changed his mind at the last minute.
Explanation: When we first meet the priest, he is simply turning pages in the magazine. He then tells Leon that he is not able to attend because of improper protocol. But as Leon is getting up to leave, the priest tells him to wait, and comes back with a coat on. This shows us that the priest has had a change of heart and decided to go after all.
