When I think of the word breakdown in communication, it is a sense of making the concept you are talking about simpler. You may need to use this tactic when talking to smaller children.
sentence: Hey Mrs. Brown, could you breakdown what you just said, I don't understand.
Answer:
If the question is referring to Rothman's article "The Serious Superficiality of the Great Gatsby", I believe the correct answer is C. The novel is about refusing to see reality no matter the cost.
Explanation:
<u>According to Rothman, the novel's (and the eponymous film's) appeal stems from its flatness, seductiveness, and rejection of reality.</u> Even though the characters are nominally seeking love and meaning, they are "desperate to give in to nearly anything—a drink, a person, a story, a feeling, a song, a crowd, an idea".
Rothman goes on to say: <u>"'Gatsby' captures, with great vividness, the push and pull of illusion and self-delusion; the danger and thrill of forgetting, lying, and fantasizing; the hazards and the indispensability of dreaming and idealization."</u> The underlying reality of the novel and the so-called "roaring twenties" that serve as its backdrop is grim. It's a world of deep class struggles, poverty, social climbers such as Gatsby who earned millions illegally. However, the characters in "Gatsby" are eager to sweep these unpleasant issues under the rug and cover them with parties, riches, gossip, and other superficial ways to kill time.
How about a story of a museum robbery and the security guard who gives teh cops and detectives the help and information about the robbery turns out to be the thief himself.. just an idea
Well if the characters in the story know about an apocalypse then they should prepare for what could happen. they should use the knowledge of what they know about the apocalypse, they should use that knowledge and prepare.
