What is the effect when author is careful to develop a character completely? Readers find it easier to follow the plot of the st
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

The effect is:

B. Readers care more about what happens to the character.

Explanation:

If a character is only superficial, readers will not feel as if they know him. And it is difficult to care about someone we do not know well. However, <u>when an author takes time to properly develop a character, readers get to truly know him. His feelings, emotions, issues, traits, traumas and so on are all built and revealed in a way that makes readers close to this person. We begin to care about him, to worry about what will happen to him, to root for him - or, in some cases, against him. It's as if the character becomes important, now that we know him so well, to the point of engaging us.</u>

How do tom and daisy feel about race? Why does Fitzgerald include this information? What does this say about the context of soci
Alexxandr [17]
This is a complex question, and one of the most interesting and critically engaging aspects of the Great Gatsby.  In the novel, Tom reads a book about white supremacy and seems to harbor some beliefs that we might consider to be racist.  He makes a number of statements throughout the novel which are decidedly racist in nature.  Daisy, at some points earlier in the novel, seems to agree with Tom's racist perspectives.

Evaluate the scene where Della and Jim exchange gifts. What effect does this situation have on the story? Which stage of plot de
Harman [31]

Answer:

Before Della and Jim exchange gifts, the reader sees anxiety between them about the fact that Della cut her hair. When the characters exchange gifts, the reader and the characters see the situational irony of the moment. Both characters sacrificed something they deeply valued to buy something the other would value. Yet what the characters sell makes the gifts they receive useless. The exchange of the gifts is the climax because the story revolves around the purchase of these gifts and what they represent. The story is resolved when the characters realize that their presents are materially useless but symbolize the deep love they share.

This would be the climax of the story because we are anticipating the reactions of both of the lovers. The falling acting would be after this, when they accept each others sacrifice for each other and enjoy a Christmas meal together.
