? ? Chapter 7? ? 1. How does Nick finally explain the charm of Daisy?s voice? In what sense, then,is? Daisy connected to ?His Father?s business, the service of a vast, vulgar and? meretricious beauty??? Both Gatsby and Nick describe Daisy?s voice as ?full of money,? and Nick continues to describe? Daisy as ?the King?s daughter, the golden girl,? which acknowledges the fact that Daisy?s money? makes her untouchable, and more elite than most. Daisy is therefore connected to ?his Father?s? business, the service of a vast, vulgar and meretricious beauty? because her voice, which really? represents her as a whole, could just be a business connection for all those around her, and their? love and affection towards her could be ?meretricious.?? ? ?

Chapter 6 1. After interpreting this comment, connect it to this quote from the introduction: ?What foul dust floated in the wake of his dream.? ?? I think the beginning of this question is missing. 2. Analyze the language in the paragraph beginning ?But his heart was in a constant, turbulent riot? and ending with ?fairy?s wing.? How does the language create a dreamlike world? Fitzgerald uses descriptive words such as ?moon soaked? and ?drowsiness? to add a lackadaisical effect to the writing. The reader observes every emotion of Gatsby?s character through these descriptions, making the language ?dreamlike? because it is so vivid. 3. Explain Gatsby?s attitude toward time.

? ? 1. Analyze the effect of language in the first sentence and first short paragraph (ending? with ?crystal glass?). Look carefully.? If I?m being completely honest, I was a bit confused about the 1st sentence and paragraph of the? 4th chapter but I will say what I think I know. Fitzgerald mentions church bells, in order to signify? holiness after a day of partying. The church is supposed to symbolize innocence, or the house of? God, and Gatsby?s house is the home of the devil, such as what the women in the first paragraph? reference to. Also, Fitzgerald carries on the theme of lies and rumors, as he introduces a new rumor? about Gatsby killing his nephew.?? 2. Explain how this comment characterizes Mr. Wolfsheim: ?I understand you?re?

The three most effective images in which Wilson?s character is established is ?spiritless man,? anaemic and faintly handsome.?

Chapter 1 Questions? ? 1. Examine the connotative language Fitzgerald uses to contrast West Egg? and East Egg.? ? In chapter 1, Fitzgerald calls both the east and west eggs ?unusual formations? of land,? however does differentiate, by naming the West Egg ?the less? fashionable between the two.? When Fitzgerald describes the East Egg, he? uses terms such as ?glittered,? in order to make clear to the reader that the? east egg holds more expensive and sophisticated homes. The narrator seems? mesmerized by the fact that both eggs are ?enormous? and ?identical in? contour.??? ? 2. Look at the paragraph about Tom Buchanan beginning with, ?He had? changed since....?
