Explain how the party goes bad (Great Gatsby Chapter 2 )

English
1 answer:

Answer:

Nick describes the "valley of ashes" that is the area between the rich suburb of West Egg and Manhattan. This is the gray and dirty part of the borough of Queens that you drive through to get from Long Island to NYC.

Above this bleak, smoky, unpleasant landscape is a giant billboard advertising Dr. T. J. Eckleburg, an eye doctor. The billboard is a set of giant eyes that seems to be surveying or judging everything below.

Tom's mistress lives in this "ash heaps" area.

One day, when Nick takes the train with Tom to Manhattan, Tom suddenly makes him get off at a random stop to meet her.

They go to a garage owned by George Wilson, who seems to be in the middle of buying a car from Tom. Myrtle Wilson, George's wife, comes down to the garage. She isn't beautiful, but is attractive because she is plump and lively. Tom quickly makes a plan to meet her in the city. He and Nick leave, and Tom explains that George has no idea that Myrtle is having an affair with Tom.

Tom insists Myrtle meet him in Manhattan, so she boards the same train as Tom and Nick, but she sits in a different car to be discreet, and they then meet up at the station.

Describe the children's favorite landscape. Why do you think Bradbury chose this
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

The children's favorite landscape depicts a blazing African savannah with deadly animals.

Explanation:

I think Bradbury chose this landscape as a reflection of the children's violent minds. It shows what is really going on behind their innocent exterior and helps the reader understand a little what the children are thinking of without being overly obvious about it. It affects the reader because it sets an ominous mood that foreshadows a violent ending. With a happier setting, the mood would not imply impending doom and the outcome of the text would seem extremely abrupt.

*Hey! I hope this helps! If you need evidence you can put it when you explain what their favorite landscape is : )*

Write a letter to a friend describing a difficult situation you are going through at the moment.​
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

A letter is a written communication transmitted through a medium from one person (or group of people).

Explanation:

Dear jhon,

I write that letter to you and ask you for advice, because I can always count on you. This letter I'm passing through.

I have social anxiety symptoms and cannot say that I have this disease; but I feel great fear and discomfort as I perform the most simple social activity. Anybody at all, I don't know. I've got no friends apart from you. For more than six months I haven't left the house. When I came to go and meet the people, I was nervous, respiratory and trembling all across my mind. I stopped doing any kind of activity to avoid such sensations, including leaving my home.

I'm afraid I am living by myself all the time, but I can't see a future but total solitude, which causes me to cry out, to suffer hours and hours in advance.

But I wanted to speak with someone, so I have chosen you, I'm ashamed to speak.

I'm sorry, I hope you understood, and I miss you. I am sorry if it bothered you

your lovingly,

Aaron
