This Side of Paradise (excerpt) F. Scott Fitzgerald 1 FOR YEARS AFTERWARD when Amory thought of Eleanor he seemed still to hear

the wind sobbing around him and sending little chills into the places beside his heart. The night when they rode up the slope and watched the cold moon float through the clouds, he lost a further part of him that nothing could restore; and when he lost it he lost also the power of regretting it. Eleanor was, say, the last time that evil crept close to Amory under the mask of beauty, the last weird mystery that held him with wild fascination and pounded his soul to flakes. 2 With her his imagination ran riot and that is why they rode to the highest hill and watched an evil moon ride high, for they knew then that they could see the devil in each other. But Eleanor—did Amory dream her? Afterward their ghosts played, yet both of them hoped from their souls never to meet. Was it the infinite sadness of her eyes that drew him or the mirror of himself that he found in the gorgeous clarity of her mind? She will have no other adventure like Amory, and if she reads this she will say: 3 "And Amory will have no other adventure like me." 4 Nor will she sigh, any more than he would sigh. 5 Eleanor tried to put it on paper once: "The fading things we only know We'll have forgotten... Put away... Desires that melted with the snow, And dreams begotten This to-day: The sudden dawns we laughed to greet, That all could see, that none could share, Will be but dawns ... and if we meet We shall not care. "
Read the passage on the left to answer the following questions: 14) The Beautiful and 1922 F. Scott Fitzgerald (chapter 3 excerpt) He had no great self-reproach — some, of course, but there were other things dominant in him now, far more urgent. He was not so much in love with Gloria as mad for her. Unless he could have her near him again, kiss her, hold her close and acquiescent, he wanted nothing more from life. By her three minutes of utter unwavering indifference the girl had lifted herself from a high but somehow casual position in his mind, to be instead his complete preoccupation. However much his wild thoughts varied between a passionate desire for her kisses and an equally passionate craving to hurt and mar her, the residue of his mind craved in finer fashion to possess the triumphant soul that had shone through those three minutes. She was beautiful — but especially she was without mercy. He must own that strength that could send him away. At present no such analysis was possible to Anthony. His clarity of mind, all those endless resources which he thought his irony had brought him were swept aside. Not only for that night but for the days and weeks that followed his books were to be but furniture and his friends only people who lived and walked in a nebulous outer world from which he was trying to escape — that world was cold and full of bleak wind, and for a little while he had seen into a warm house where fires shone.

Considering information from both excerpts, which is a logical conclusion that could be made? A) The settings of F. Scott Fitzgerald's novels are exotic and foreign to his readers. B) The writings of F. Scott Fitzgerald include characters with intense and complicated emotions. C) F. Scott Fitzgerald created uncomplicated characters so he can focus on plots with intrigue and mystery. D) F. Scott Fitzgerald based his characters on actual people well known in the political sphere of the late nineteenth century.
