Explanation:

A conjunction is a word used to connect other words, phrases, or clauses inside a sentence. A coordinating conjunction, more specifically, connects parts that have the same importance inside a sentence. It doesn't establish a subordinating relationship between clauses, for example. Both clauses connected by a coordinating conjunction are equally important. The coordinating conjunctions are: FANBOYS (for, and, not, but, or, yet, so).

Subordinating conjunctions are used to introduce a dependent clause. They establish a relationship of dependence in the sentence - for the subordinate clause the make sense, it needs the main one. Examples of subordinating conjunctions are: whenever, while, until, although, because, if, even though, etc.

Finally, correlative conjunctions are pairs of words that connect two ideas. These ideas are usually expressed in similar structures. They are: neither... nor, either... or, both... and, not only... but also, whether... or, so/as... as.

Why is it fitting that the train always halts in the Valley of Ashes? Why is it fitting that this setting is where Nick meets To
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

Because the Valley of Ashes is a train route connecting the East egg to West Egg in New York

Explanation:

The train  always halts for about half a minute at the Valley of Ashes because  the Valley of Ashes is a train stop, an important connection point between East and West Egg.

Tom mistress, Myrtle lives with her husband above a gas station in the Valley of Ashes. Hence on their way to New York, Tom insists that Nick gets off the train to get to see his mistress.

The Valley of Ashes is a strategic meeting point because it symbolises the persons involved  - both Nick and Tom are nouveau-rich upper class people who usually transit through the Valley of Ashes, a symbol of hopelessness,neglect and poverty, to exploit the poor people there.

Myrtle on the other hand, even though she lives in the Valley of Ashes, dreams of living a life of affluence and power and the meeting with Tom is the only way she can live that dream of affluence even though it is at the expense of her husband and marriage. She, however doesn't seem to care about them both.
