Answer:

The war.

Explanation:

F. Scott Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatsby" revolves around the character of Jay Gatsby and his 'lost American dream'. Though narrated by another character, Nick Carraway, the novel focuses on Gatsby, his life, his desire for Daisy, the theme of status, greed, betrayal, lost love, etc.

In Chapter 3, Nick had gone to Gatsby's party after being invited. Though he knows his neighbor's name is Gatsby and that he would often throw parties, he hadn't actually met the man himself. While there at the party, he was conversing with Jordan at a table where there was a <em>"man of about [his] age"</em>. That man started a conversation with him, asking if he had been <em>"in the Third Division during the war"</em>, to which Nick replied that he <em>"was in the Ninth Machine-Gun Battalion."</em> The man then declared that he <em>"was in the Seventh Infantry until June nineteen-eighteen." </em>Shortly after this encounter, Nick discovered that the man was Gatsby himself after Gatsby remarked, <em>"I'm Gatsby."</em>

The Great Gatsby highlights __________.
MAVERICK [17]

Answer: The empty materialism that is damaging American society

Explanation:

F.Scott Fitzgerald's <em>Great Gatsby</em> is a novel from 1925. Set in 1922, in the fictional neighborhoods of 'West Egg' and 'East Egg' ( in real life, Great Neck and Port Washington), the novel portrays the decade known as The Roaring Twenties.

During this period of economic growth, people spent their money on expensive clothes and automobiles. This is also characteristic of the characters in the novel - they are convinced that material goods will make them happy. <em>Materialism</em> is the attention given to material wealth rather than spiritual or moral values. As seen in the novel, increased spending does not really make the characters happy. Although Daisy lives in a luxurious house, she feels alone and is dissatisfied with her life. Similarly, Gatsby throws fancy-dress parties, but is a sad man that tragically dies.
