The Great Gatsby: Chapters 6-7 quiz

English
1 answer:

Answer:

Mr. and Mrs. Sloane and Tom leave. They do not wait for Gatsby.

Explanation:

"The Great Gatsby" is a novel by American author F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940) in which he explores themes such as the depravity of society and the decadence of the American dream.

The narrator is Nick, Gatsby's neighbor. Nick is cousin to Daisy, Gatsby's love interest. Daisy is married to millionaire Tom Buchanan, an unfaithful and brute man. Mr. and Mrs. Sloane are just minor characters who, like Tom and Daisy, are wealthy and shallow.

At a certain point in the story, Tom, Mr. and Mrs. Sloane are riding their horses when they stop by Gatsby's house to have a drink of water. Gatsby, unlike them, is new money. He does not come from a wealthy, traditional family. Thus, he is desperate to be accepted by the old money society. <u>When Mrs. Sloane, out of politeness, invites Gatsby to dine with them, Gatsby accepts the invitation without realizing it was not serious. While he goes inside his house for a moment, Tom, Mr. and Mrs. Sloane leave. They do not wait for him to come with them. It is interesting that they find Gatsby's acceptance of the invitation to be rude, but do not care when they are rude to him themselves.</u>

In it are captain Starglyn and Suncon, the Celestial Geologist. They are studying the possible causes of the destruction of this city. Having studied a meteorite that broke away from the earth in 2048, Suncon has learnt that men on the earth had themselves caused their end. Even though men knew they were destroying the earth by polluting, cutting down forests and emitting dangerous gases, they didn’t stop such activities. They knew what was right and what was evil, but, fools, they chose the evil way. Two aliens, Starglyn and Suncon, landed on a stretch of meadow between two hills that face a crumbling city. The city was once a prosperous one but over population and overconsumption of natural resources brought decay to the city. All died, man and animal. The city was rendered lifeless.
