Answer:

The words "strangest" and "unusual" suggest that the narrator is about to tell the story of an odd or puzzling group of people.

Explanation:

The Great Gatsby, by F. Scott Fitzgerald, is not a story about a pleasant neighborhood or a political revolution. It is indeed a story about an odd group of people. The characters, most of them rich and somewhat famous in their social circle, are broken people.

The narrator, Nick, is cousin to Daisy, the love interest of the main character, Gatsby. Nick is the only one who seems unable to adapt to the other characters' vain lifestyle. He is capable of watching their stories develop only to reach a somber conclusion. Morals and happiness are kept at bay by the vanity and selfishness of the richer portion of society. They are truly miserable, even if they appear to be enjoying themselves. There is no love between husband and wife, mother and daughter, or between friends.

Nick himself ends up walking away from the others, disgusted by the falsehood of their lives.

Discuss whether Shakespeare's adaptation of the historic love story Romeo and Juliet places an emphasis on moral behavior. Use e
coldgirl [10]
An emphasis on moral behavior (and the questioning of it) is at the core of "Romeo and Juliet". The main conflict revolves around it: how ethical it is to fall in love with my family's enemy? During the course of the drama, this moral question transforms into another one: How ethical it is to hate other people in the first place, based only on their surname?

The ethical question gets especially complicated when Juliet thinks about marrying Paris. To her, it seems as if she would betray Romeo, which she would never do; but the paradox is that if she betrayed Romeo, she would undo the betrayal of her family. In spite of that, she doesn't want to give up on her loyalty to Romeo. In Act 4, Scene 1, she says:

JULIET 
O, bid me leap, rather than marry Paris,
From off the battlements of yonder tower,
Or walk in thievish ways, or bid me lurk
Where serpents are. Chain me with roaring bears;
Or shut me nightly in a charnel house,
O'ercovered quite with dead men's rattling bones,
With reeky shanks and yellow chapless skulls.
Or bid me go into a new-made grave
And hide me with a dead man in his shroud
<span>(Things that, to hear them told, have made me </span>
   tremble),
And I will do it without fear or doubt,
<span>To live an unstained wife to my sweet love.</span>
