Question 8 (5 points) (LC) Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow. Tom Stoppard's play, Rosencrantz and

Guildenstern Are Dead, draws on two previous theatrical works: Shakespeare's Hamlet and Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot. Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead follows the "off-stage" exploits of two minor characters from Hamlet, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. While the two main characters in Stoppard's play occasionally make brief appearances in "Hamlet," as scripted in Shakespeare's original tragedy, the majority of the play takes place in other parts of the castle where Hamlet is set. While "off stage" in this way, the characters resemble the main characters in the absurdist Waiting for Godot. As in Beckett's play, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern pass the time by impersonating other characters, engaging in word play, and remaining silent for long periods of time. These same two characters were also featured in a parody of Hamlet, the short comic play by W. S. Gilbert entitled Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. Gilbert's play makes Rosencrantz and Guildenstern into central characters and alters the storyline of Hamlet: The author of this passage chooses to describe four different playwrights in order to (5 points) са convince the reader that one playwright is more talented than another Ob instruct the reader about the least successful adaptations of Shakespeare inform the reader of many different interpretations of the same two characters Od distract the reader from the true message of Shakespeare's tragic play Question 9 (5 points)​

What is the deeper meaning of Gatsby's swimming pool?
Vladimir [108]
Gatsby had not used his swimming pool once untill the day he died. He was very wealthy and had access to many luxuries but did not enjoy them. The purpose of these luxuries was to impress his love Daisy. The fact that he used his pool before he died probably represents the fact that he knew his time was limited and he used this time to finaly induldge in the luxuries he had. He knew he would never be able to have Daisy now and so there was no point in just having things to have them. I hope that helps.
