Answer:

The stopped in the Valley of Ashes on their way to the city to meet Tom's girl, his mistress Myrtle Wilson.

Nick felt he had been ambushed or forced to meet her even though he had expressed no desire to be acquainted with her.

Explanation:

F. Scott Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatsby" revolves around the story of Jay Gatsby and his desire to reunite with his former girl friend Daisy Buchanan. The story deals with themes of wealth, social life, a lost American Dream, love, life, etc.

The narrator Nick Carraway mentioned how he met Tom Buchanan's mistress in Chapter 2. Tom has been married to Daisy for several years now and his mistress Myrtle is also married to George Wilson. When Tom took Nick to meet Myrtle, it was more of a forced invitation rather than a request. Nick recalls how Tom was <em>"taking hold of [his] elbow literally forced [him] from the car."</em> Nick seems angry about the whole thing, <em>"The supercilious assumption was that on Sunday afternoon I had nothing better to do."</em>

So, Tom and Nick stopped to meet Myrtle Wilson, Tom's mistress. Nick feels that it was more of a forced meet rather than a request to make him acquainted with her.

Miss Lottie’s house was the most ramshackle of all our ramshackle homes. The sun and rain had long since faded its rickety frame
Vesna [10]

D - 'Like a house that a child might have constructed from cards' is the best option to indicate what the word 'ramshackle' means.

Ramshackle means something in severe disrepair (example: an old, rusty car is a ramshackle car or this house). A house that a child constructed from cards is also thought to be not sturdy and in need of repair when it comes down.

One of the words listed does not belong with the others..<br>chain<br>fight<br>nip<br>suit<br>walk​
Vaselesa [24]

I would say suit doesn't belong.

All of the other words could be classified as verbs, and suit simply as a noun in almost any case.

What is the effect of the imagery in these lines
Masteriza [31]
You did not provide the lines, however, imagery is often used when the writer wants to create a visual image in the minds of his/her reader. It usually consists of numerous descriptions that are often vivid and colorful and highly detailed. You can use that logic on the lines that you might have and see what the correct answer is.
