Read the excerpt from Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby. Their house was even more elaborate than I expected, a cheerful red-and-whi

te Georgian Colonial mansion, overlooking the bay. The lawn started at the beach and ran toward the front door for a quarter of a mile, jumping over sun-dials and brick walks and burning gardens—finally when it reached the house drifting up the side in bright vines as though from the momentum of its run. The front was broken by a line of French windows, glowing now with reflected gold and wide open to the warm windy afternoon, and Tom Buchanan in riding clothes was standing with his legs apart on the front porch. Based on this description of the Buchanans’ house, what inference can be made about many East Egg residents?

The East Egg residents place more importance on the good qualities of their homes. They like to hide the bad qualities of their life.

What can be inferred based on this description is that many East Egg residents<span> hide their unattractive qualities beneath beautiful, light, and dreamy appearances.
As is the case of Daisy and Tom - they live in a beautiful manor which seems perfect on the outside, just like Daisy and Tom do. However, if you take a peak inside, you will see their true selves - they are unhappily married, Tom is cheating on her with Myrtle, and Daisy is cheating on him with Gatsby.

The narrator visits her new school for the first time .what does the narrators first encounter with the school setting indicate
Bad White [126]

Answer:

I think its based on perception. Like if the narrator comments on the people, setting, look, then you could say they're superficial however this could also mean that they value their own image or how they look to others.

If the narrator comments on the "aesthetic" and the aura they get, (the typical stepping into a new area and a gust of wind flies through their hair), this could mean they're easily intimidated or passive.

Lol this is a very vague question but I hope this helped!

The Egyptologist, who had worked with the business person, was convinced that King Tut's tomb was in the Valley of the Kings.
Ivanshal [37]
Since nothing is underlined, I am going to make an educated guess that the underlines clause is "who had worked with the business person". If that is the case, the correct answer would be D - adjective clause. It is a relative clause, to be more precise, because it starts with a relative pronoun "who", but that is a part of adjectival clauses, so that is the correct answer.

How is Cassy's story connected with the themes of the book? Choose two examples and explain how they evoke a specific theme. You
Viefleur [7K]
The themes of the book include morality and womanhood. Cassy commits infanticide not because she wanted to do it but because she had no choice. She was a slave and that meant she did not have the capacity to raise the baby. Despite this, she still made her decision to kill the baby and that shows her 'moral weakness.'
