Answer: Great gatsby

Explanation: great Gatsby

In The Great Gatsby, how does the setting of the villages of East and West Egg affect the story?

Select the two correct answers.

Gatsby lives in West Egg and Daisy lives in East Egg, emphasizing that both social class and physical distance separate them.

As suburbs of New York City, East and West Egg represent an escape from the decadence and excess that is a part of city life.

Even though both are wealthy communities, East Egg residents, who inherited their money, look down on West Egg residents with new money.

Nick is ashamed to live in West Egg and spends the majority of his time in East Egg with Daisy or in New York City.

2. Read the excerpt.

In this scene from Chapter 2 of The Great Gatsby, Nick has been pressured to join Tom and Myrtle at their apartment in New York City for a party.

Tom rang for the janitor and sent him for some celebrated sandwiches which were a complete supper in themselves. I wanted to get out and walk eastward toward the park through the soft twilight, but each time I tried to go I became entangled in some wild, strident argument which pulled me back, as if with ropes, into my chair. Yet high over the city our line of yellow windows must have contributed their share of human secrecy to the casual watcher in the darkening streets, and I was him too, looking up and wondering. I was within and without, simultaneously enchanted and repelled by the inexhaustible variety of life.

What is the effect of the word choice in the scene?

It shows that although he feels out of place at first, Nick eventually comes to enjoy the attention he receives from other party guests.

It contrasts Nick’s perceptions of what is happening at the party with those observing the scene from outside.

It emphasizes Nick’s opposing feelings of disgust and fascination with the people and places around him.

It reveals Nick’s extreme discomfort interacting with people from different social classes.

3. In Chapter 4 of The Great Gatsby, Gatsby relates to Nick a portion of his past as they drive into New York City.

How does this flashback contribute to the meaning of the story?

Select each correct answer.

The two men bond over their experience fighting in the war.

Gatsby reveals he is aware of the stories people tell about him.

Nick doubts Gatsby’s truthfulness and realizes Gatsby is trying to reinvent himself.

Nick realizes that Gatsby has no idea what other people think of him.

Because some details are ridiculous, while others seem true, Gatsby remains a mystery. this should help
