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.

: Explain Beowulf’s reasoning behind the method he will use to fight Grendel. What does this reveal about the relationship betwe
ddd [48]
Beowulf tells Hrothgar that he will fight Grendel with his bare hands, as Grendel doesn't fight with weapons (it seems he can't even be killed with a blade). The only help Beowulf will get is the help of his warriors. Beowulf is aware that the lives of all his warriors are at stake, and anticipates that Grendel will eat them if they fail, but he is still eager to do this. This reveals that the leader is always the first one to fight, in front of his followers. But although he vouches for their lives, they must follow him to death, if need be.
Just like Beowulf is a leader to his warriors, Hrothgar, as a king, is the spiritual leader of the realm. Beowulf yields to him and wants to fight and even die for him, as Hrothgar represents the God's will on Earth. When the realm is physically endangered by a murderous, devilish villain, it means that the God's order on Earth is symbolically endangered, and it takes a hero to restore it.

In macbeth is lady macbeth involved in the plot against banquo why or why not
Natali [406]
I think Lady Macbeth wasn't involved at all because Macbeth does not tell her. Also, Macbeth does not want to keep her worried. So Macbeth says "Be innocent of the knowledge, dearest chuck, / Till thou applaud the deed.". This means that Macbeth is telling Lady Macbeth to digest the deed about Duncan first. This is what i remember its been a while since i read the book. But hope this helps.
