(2.5) The Future of Gatsby and Daisy- Discussion (1-1) You know about Gatsby and Daisy in the past and in the present—but what about their future? Thinking about all you have learned—about their characters, about the social classes that divide them, and about their views of the past—predict what you think will happen between the two. Use details from the novel and from your lessons to support your answer.

I don't think Daisy will wind up/remain with Tom or Gatsby because of their relationship and emotions. And every one has a defect that just can't be disregarded enough seeing someone. Tom is excessively controlling, which is not really even a relationship by any stretch of the imagination, and Gatsby, in spite of his sweetness to her inverse of Tom, needs to accomplish something much increasingly incomprehensible: remember the past, as though the past is a pool to bounce innocuously directly back in. What Gatsby is misleading is unrealistic and Tom's character is too poor to be in any way evident, which is the reason that captivation won't keep going extremely long either.

End of (2.9) The Great Gatsby: A Timeless Tragedy- Quiz (1-15) 15. What do you think the title, "The Great Gatsby," means? Is Gatsby "great"? Why or why not? (4 points)

I imagine that the title "The Great Gatsby" is unexpected. The shallow part of Gatsby life that could appear "extraordinary" is that he is the most extravagant, coolest, handsomest man in the area, who drives the best and most costly vehicle, who lives in a chateau and tosses the most slamming parties. In any case, while including further with the story, the peruser dissapoints of Garsby, and understands that Gatsby is only significance. In the wake of becoming familiar with Gatsby, the underlying interest with him transforms into dissatisfaction. Thusly, the "incredible" turns unpleasant since really Gatsby's cash originates from wrongdoing. His gatherings, house, and material riches don't fulfill him. He's an ethical bankrupt pursuing a wedded lady. What's more, he despises his genuine self and has made a totally different phony persona trying to experience a high school dream. With the goal that the title "The Great Gatsby" appears to be a tragic, shallow "enormity." 4/4 points The final score is 24/24 (100%). (That is if you put those answers.)

(2.9) The Great Gatsby: A Timeless Tragedy- Quiz (1-15) 13. Is Nick, from "The Great Gatsby," a trustworthy narrator? (4 points)

No, Nick is definitely not a reliable storyteller in the book "The Great Gatsby". The motivation behind why Nick is a temperamental character isn't just the way that he is Daisy's cousin. Despite the fact that he is watching and describing another person's story, Nick is a first-individual storyteller. He is one of the characters in the story and the plot is told from his perspective. A first-individual storyteller has restricted information on what's going on and recounts to the story as per his own view and suppositions. Along these lines, what the peruser finds a good pace what the storyteller likewise knows. Right now, detests his own cousin Daisy, her better half, and her companions for being shallow individuals without any qualities. In spite of Gatsby's being a lawbreaker, Nick appreciates his immaculateness of heart and adolescent aspiration. Subsequently, that is the thing that perusers are told about the characters. 4/4 points

(2.9) The Great Gatsby: A Timeless Tragedy- Quiz (1-15) 14. Choose a symbol from "The Great Gatsby." Explain what it means literally as well as its significance to the text. (4 points)

The Green Light. Arranged toward the finish of Daisy's East Egg dock and scarcely noticeable from Gatsby's West Egg grass, the green light speaks to Gatsby's deepest desires for what's to come. Gatsby partners it with Daisy, and in Chapter 1 he comes to toward it in the obscurity as a directing light to lead him to his objective. 4/4 points
