What are some themes and symbols in "The Great Gatsby?" Explain
You have to use 2 pieces of evidence to support your answer

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The Eyes of Doctor T. J. Eckleburg

The eyes of Doctor T. J. Eckleburg are a pair of fading, bespectacled eyes painted on an old advertising billboard over the valley of ashes. They may represent God staring down upon and judging American society as a moral wasteland, though the novel never makes this point explicitly. Instead, throughout the novel, Fitzgerald suggests that symbols only have meaning because characters instill them with meaning. The connection between the eyes of Doctor T. J. Eckleburg and God exists only in George Wilson’s grief-stricken mind. This lack of concrete significance contributes to the unsettling nature of the image. Thus, the eyes also come to represent the essential meaninglessness of the world and the arbitrariness of the mental process by which people invest objects with meaning. Nick explores these ideas in Chapter 8, when he imagines Gatsby’s final thoughts as a depressed consideration of the emptiness of symbols and dreams.

Why do you think it was important for Lincoln to appeal to both ethos and pathos in his address?

Must be 2 paragraphs of 4-6 sentences each

Must include 2 text specific examples

Answers

Answer:

It was important for Lincoln to appeal to both ethos and pathos in his address because

Explanation:

Ethos is the character/credibility of one's self, if Lincoln couldn't sell his ethos as the President of the United States at the time, he would be kicked from his position immediately. Gaining ethos gives the audience a reason to believe them because you know- he's the president.

Pathos is to use emotions/passion to persuade and sell your point. In his speech, Lincoln uses pathos when addressing the soldiers and people who were lost. He reallys pulls you in- emotional soundtrack and all- when he reminded everyone on what beliefs this country was founded on and all that jazz.

Answer:

Ethos shows characters, but pathos shows emotions.

it is important for a president like Abraham Lincoln to show he has good character and credibility, so people trust him. it is also good to show emotions so that people know he cares about the world.

What different cultures celebrate thanksgiving differently?

Answers

Answer:

1. African-American:

“As an African-American whose mother is half-Jamaican, for Thanksgiving my mom usually makes a nice big Turkey, chicken with dressing (which means stuffing), ox tails, pot roast, baked macaroni and cheese, rice and peas, candied yams, potato salad, deviled eggs, collard greens, cabbage, and either lasagna or baked ziti.  For dessert my mom makes 2 sweet potato pies and banana pudding. My immediate family eats at home first and we make a plate for my grandmother and family friends who live close by. Then we go over to my grandma’s house where a lot of my extended family go to spend Thanksgiving and there’s usually similar food at her house.”

2. Korean:

“For thanksgiving, it is only my immediate family which includes me, my two sisters and my parents. We just chill and talk about what’s new because me and my sisters don’t live with my parents anymore. For dinner, we have roast beef ham, mashed potatoes, and a couple different casseroles and for dessert we have pecan pumpkin pie. We also go to bed early for black Friday.”  -Jess W.

3. Jamaican:

“My great aunt makes Thanksgiving dinner, and we eat Jamaican food but with a huge turkey. Usually, my family from Jamaica will come up too, so it’s a lot of people in a really small house. We eat rice and peas, baked macaroni and cheese which is kind of spicy, banana bread, breadfruit, and rum cake. After dinner we rant about American politics and the adults smoke cigarettes and drink wine and then us college kids will usually drink the rest of it.”  -Ellie F.

4. Indian:

“For Thanksgiving, as an Indian and vegetarian, we don’t eat the normal Thanksgiving food. We usually make a big meal with salad, lasagna, etc. We have family come over for lunch and then watch a movie at home or we eat lunch as a family and then go to a get-together at a friend’s house.”  -Janvi J.

6. Puerto Rican

“I live in Puerto Rico, so a Puerto Rican Thanksgiving typically includes rice and beans, turkey seasoned like pork called paction (Pavo means turkey and lechon means pork). We also have morcillas, a type of sausage, and a dessert like flan, coquito, and arroz con leche.​” –Alexis H.

6. Portuguese:

“Both my parents and their families descend from Portugal, with my siblings and I being the first generation to be born in the United States. My parents didn’t really know what Thanksgiving was until after they had arrived to the U.S. and my sister and I brought home stories about this tradition. But they’ve adopted it as their own, making sure that our family is together on that Thursday. We have a turkey with gravy, filled with stuffing. We don’t have cranberry sauce or any sort of pies, but we do have mashed potatoes (and roasted potatoes because those are my favorite). We also have white rice and a salad, which we have at every other meal during the year. This is all followed by some sort of dessert, either a chocolate cake or chocolate chip cookies and some sort of store-bought cookie that my parents want to try. It isn’t much, especially for a holiday that’s always advertised as one where you need to loosen your belt. But for something that my parents adopted from scratch, it’s Thanksgiving to me.” -Diana C.

What are the double meaning in the poem love song of j. alfred prufrock in line 1-49
Let us go then, you and I,

When the evening is spread out against the sky

Like a patient etherized2

upon a table;

Let us go, through certain half-deserted streets,

The muttering retreats

Of restless nights in one-night cheap hotels

And sawdust restaurants with oyster-shells:

Streets that follow like a tedious argument

Of insidious intent

To lead you to an overwhelming question . . .

Oh, do not ask, “What is it?”

Let us go and make our visit.

In the room the women come and go

Talking of Michelangelo.3

The yellow fog that rubs its back upon the window-panes,

The yellow smoke that rubs its muzzle on the window-panes,

Licked its tongue into the corners of the evening,

Lingered upon the pools that stand in drains,

Let fall upon its back the soot that falls from chimneys,

Slipped by the terrace, made a sudden leap,

And seeing that it was a soft October night,

Curled once about the house, and fell asleep.

And indeed there will be time4

For the yellow smoke that slides along the street

Rubbing its back upon the window-panes;

There will be time, there will be time

To prepare a face to meet the faces that you meet;

There will be time to murder and create,

And time for all the works and days5

of hands

That lift and drop a question on your plate;

Time for you and time for me,

And time yet for a hundred indecisions,

And for a hundred visions and revisions.

Before the taking of a toast and tea.

In the room the women come and go

Talking of Michelangelo.

And indeed there will be time

To wonder, “Do I dare?’’ and, “Do I dare?”

Time to turn back and descend the stair,

With a bald spot in the middle of my hair—

(They will say: “How his hair is growing thin!”)

My morning coat, my collar mounting firmly to the chin,

My necktie rich and modest, but asserted by a simple pin—

(They will say: “But how his arms and legs are thin!”)

Do I dare

Disturb the universe?

In a minute there is time

For decisions and revisions which a minute will reverse.

For I have known them all already, known them all

the authors of this study used rapid dna sequencing technology of virus samples from patients to study a recent ebola virus outbreak. how might the understanding of the 2014 ebola virus outbreak gained from this research benefit relief efforts and support future research?

Answers

Understanding the outbreak of the Ebola virus and the research that sequenced the DNA of this virus can serve as a basis for creating more efficient medications, treatments, diagnoses, and control and prevention techniques.

We can arrive at this answer because:

Understanding the virus outbreak allows scientists to know how the virus spreads and how it infects each person.In addition, the study of the virus outbreak, allows scientists to understand the situations and elements that help or hinder the proliferation, infection, and contagion.With this, scientists can design better control and prevention methods that guarantee people's safety.Studies for the sequencing of the virus's DNA allow scientists to know the genetic makeup of the virus and how it behaves.This allows scientists to formulate more efficient medicines, vaccines, and treatments, which are directly involved in the composition of the virus to fight it.

With that, we can affirm that all these researches are important to prevent and to fight the infection by the Ebola virus, guaranteeing world security.
