What does gatsby reply when nick asks him how he makes his money?
Gennadij [26K]
Gatsby was rude, and it made Nick suspicious.

"I think he hardly knew what he was saying, for when I asked him what business he was in he answered, “That’s my affair,” before he realized that it wasn’t the appropriate reply.

“Oh, I’ve been in several things,” he corrected himself."

Analyze the structure of the poem “Birmingham Sunday” and explain why Fariña made certain structural decisions. Use evidence fro
OLEGan [10]

The poem has a structure which is very much like the structure of a children´s poem.Meant to be understood by everybody no matter the age group, it has very simple vocabulary.It is structured like a ballad , a song.

All the decisions Farinha made for structuring the poem are linked to the impact he wanted the poem to have.He uses a rhyme pattern that includes the repetition of a line.." And the choirs kept singing of Freedom ..." which serves two purposes.First, it is the chorus in a song.Second, it is the main line in which the theme of the poem is revealed together with the irony of what took place in that church.One goes to church for praying to  God Almighty that cares and protects.God protects people who believe in freedom but it seems He was not there that day..." She asked for a blessing but asked for no more.."The unjustice of the event is emphasised by the use of sentences recalling the catastrophe.."On Birmingham Sunday the  blood ran like wine.." He provides time and place.Farinha also  wants his audience to remember what happened, to learn the names of the victims  by numbering them in the poem ..." And Denise Mc Nair brought the number to two.."He appears to be usind the structure of a mathematical addition in order to magnify the harm done by the bombers.Finally , he repeats the same line at the beginning and the end of the poem.." Sing you a song.." .."It´ll do no one wrong"..He does it explaining that he does not want to hurt anyone with his message compared to what some lost souls  do to the people and to the world.
