c) wins bets for smiley by appearing to be incapable

In the story the horse's nickname was called the "fifteen-minute nag" which made people underestimate her. She was actually very fast. The dog is described as "he wan's worth a cent, but to set around and look ornery, and lay for a chance to steal something." However, the dog would change as soon as he got in the ring. He'd use his opponents hind legs to get the better of him. Most of Smiley's animals were misleading in their appearances.

1) Discuss two characteristics of "The Lost Generation" writers.
lakkis [162]

Two characteristics of the writers of "The Lost Generation" are a lack of patriotism and pessimism about the future. After the First World War, women realized their importance in the labor market and politics and began to seek greater participation in these fields.

Fitzgerald uses imagery and descriptive language to give an in-depth look at the story. Two events that influenced modern literature were the Great Depression and the World Wars.

<h3>What was "The Lost Generation?"</h3>
  • It was a term created by Gertrude Stein and popularized by Ernest Hemingway.
  • It was a term that referred to the generation of people who fought in World War I and had to live through the Great Depression.
  • It was the term used to describe a tired generation, without perspectives and with a tendency to break rules and seek change.

The First World War brought many social changes, one of these changes was related to women, who realized the relevance and social strength they had. These women began to look for political representation that would allow for greater freedom and independence.

But not only did women's lives change during this period, but literature was also greatly affected by the two World Wars and the Great Depression. These events generated different literary styles and writers to tell their experiences, something that influences literature to this day.

Finally, it is important to emphasize how Fitzgerald's literary works present such a well-constructed scenario, which allows the reader to have a deep view of the work.

This happens through the constant use of imagery that makes the reader feel like living in that scenario and feeling all the impact it promotes. Fitzgerald also makes use of many adjectives creating an immersive and efficient descriptive language for the reader.
