Considering chapter 4 of "Great Gatsby," what is meant by Nick's comment below... Nick's comment: "Then it had not been merely t
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

The first sentence refers to Daisy: the sole and intense purpose of Gatsby's existence. She represents that thing "beyond the stars" that Gatsby aspires to. His entire adult life has been devoted to becoming the kind of man he thought would be worthy for Daisy to marry. Daisy's family was wealthy and socially respectable; Gatsby came from nothing. Their youthful love affair ended in tragedy because Daisy felt she couldn't marry someone with no money or social standing. In becoming wealthy and socially viable, Gatsby also became decadent. The "purposeless splendor" of his lifestyle is revealed to be far deeper and more significant, as Nick realizes Gatsby's singular purpose is to win back Daisy. In Nick's eyes, this makes Gatsby even more impressive and admirable, because Gatsby represents chivalry and romance in a decadent modern age.

Which of these best shows that "Trust me, you want to get rid of me as much as I want to get away from you" is an example of ver
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

D. The author follows the comment with "Mrs. Sue lied again."

Explanation:

Verbal irony is a type of lie that is added to the text. This kind of irony is perceived when the character says something, but actually thinks the opposite of what he said, that is, what the character says is not really what he wants and does not represent his real thoughts about a certain thing.

In the case shown in the question above, we can conclude that the use of verbal irony was established to show that Sue was lying, since she said something, but wants the exact opposite.

It seems that your question misses relevant details so that we can provide the correct answer, but I hope this will help you. Context clues are words that are used as hints within a sentence in order to help provide meaning or understanding of a difficult or unfamiliar word. There are five types of context clues and the five types of context clues include Definition/explanation, restatement/synonym, contrast/antonym, inference/general context, and punctuation. Hope this helps.
