Answer:

The correct answer is letter D. Nick recognizes, in their contrasting reactions to the news of their wives' infidelities, Wilson's sickness and Tom's health.

Explanation:

Nick is the narrator in the novel "The Great Gatsby", by F. Scott Fitzgerald. He is now witnessing how the news of having an unfaithful wife affects Tom and Wilson in completely different manners. Tom is a strong man in every sense; a brute with intelligence. He is used to having and keeping what he wants. He knows he will not lose Daisy, his wife, to Gatsby. He sees himself as an incomparable specimen. Wilson, on the other hand, is physically strong, but mentally and intellectually weak. The news breaks his spirits to the point he decides to force his wife to move away with him. He is unable to understand the situation, the reasons behind it, and the best way to deal with it. Nick sees, therefore, that Tom and Wilson are subject to the same issues, the same tragedies. The difference is in Tom's healthy and Wilson's sick minds.

scZoUnD [109]

TRUE, community-policing is the only police strategy that incorporates the problems encountered by the poor into decision-making by the police.

The police are the body of individuals empowered by the state to enforce laws, ensure the safety, health and property of citizens, and prevent crime and civil unrest. Their lawful powers include arrest and use of force authorized by the state through a monopoly on the use of force.

The police are generally responsible for maintaining law, order and safety, enforcing the law, and preventing, detecting and investigating criminal activity. These features are called policing.

Cops who issue speeding tickets and arrest murderers are examples of police.
