Hi! This is one of my favorite stories and here are the answers/ my opinions.
1) Arachne's pride and bigheadedness causes her to be blind to the praise she is given
2) Arachne could have thanked the old lady and accepted her advice.
3) She disrespects the numerous gods in the woven cloth.
4) Athena could have seen forgiveness or could have given Arachne the prize for winning (even though in Athenas place it was only right Archne was punished)
Hope I helped, tell me if I'm wrong!
Fitzgerald wants to portray and characterize the US society in the 30s. By making this question about race and their opinion about it, the author intends to characterize American society as competitive, a value that is repeated throughout the story. One of the main purpose of the novel, in fact, is to show how competitive, materialistic, and full of glamour the society is, especially the people who live in East Egg like Tom and Daisy.
