Specifically on chapters 5 - 9. I suck ak English and I gotta do some questions that I can't find in the book  because I'm stoopid. just a few things, that's all, I'm not asking for much. Any help would be appreciated!P.S: Isn't it a nice change to talk about books instead of games?  (edited by Yiffy Kitten on 03-25-04 09:35 PM) |

| Best I can tell you is look up something like Cliffnotes or Sparknotes...I think both of them have online sites but I'm not sure... I would go into the one essay site that I know of...but I won't. |

Originally posted by Hiryuu DO NOT GO TO SPARKNOTES. Thier information isn't provided by professionals but instead mostly college students with shitty grades, making thier information marginally useful at best and flat-out wrong at worst. Cliffnotes, however, is a pretty respectable business. By the way, it's a little general to summarize chapters 5-9, especially since it's been well over a year since I read the book and I sure as hell don't remember which chapter is which. Posting teh questions would help greatly. |

| OK, *mario kart 64 toad's voice* Here we go! These are ALL the questions. Chapter 5-6 Who was Klpspringer and what did he do? What is Daisy most impressed with while touring Gatsby's house? What is her reaction? What effect did Don Cody have on Gatsby's life? What doesn't Gatsby realize about Mrs. Sloane's dinner invitation? What did Daisy think about the party? Chapter 7 Why did Gatsby fire all his servents? What does the scene with Pammy suggest about Daisy as a mother? What effect does it have on Gatsby? When does Tom realize that there is a definate relationship between Daisy and Gatsby? Who went to town, and in which cars? What plan does George Wilson reveal to Tom when they stop for gas? As Myrtle looks out the window, what incorrect assumption does she make? What makes Gatsby fear that all his dreams have vanished? In what ways is Tom Buchanan a hypocrite? Chapters 8-9 How long had Daisy and Gatsby known each other in Louisville? Who is Michaelis? What did George see as proof that Myrtle was having an affair? How does George see the eyes of Dr. T. J. Eckleburg? Why wouldn't Wolfsheim attend Gatsby's funeral? What part did Tom play in Gatsby's death? What additional information is given about James Gatz by his father? How does Garsby's funeral reinforce the ACTUAL position Gatsby had atended in society? How had Gatsby really made his money? Why does Nick call Tom and Daisy "careless people? |

| Have you tried turning to the net yet? ALso cliffnotes would be good as it gives a nice amount of information needed to get atleast a basic understanding of the book, nonetheless answer some questions. Here are some minor character info pages; has info on Klipspringer Also, if you need help tracking certain events, just bullet important events as they come up, then go back, and read your notes. |

I had to read that book for English class in Secondary 5, but that was almost 5 years ago so I don't remember anything  But I read all the books they gave us to read for Literature or English class at secondary school and college, even when they didn't interest me much (in other words, I read them just because I had to and didn't want to fail) ... the biggest few had 400-600 pages, too  And I had to find all the answers by myself, I didn't even have Internet access at the time ... |

| I have to read F. Scott Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatsby" for my English class right now. I found that www.pinkmonkey.com has some really good info and stuff on it. I reccomend it for the answers to your questions. I'm not done with the book though, I'm only on Chapter 4. |

Originally posted by Kirby PopStar I have the same thing to say about pinkmonkey as I do about Sparknotes. Mostly made by college students with shitty grades, so thier information is sorta-kinda useful at best and simply wrong at worst. I know the answers to most of those questions, actually, but if you're being questioned in such great detail I think it'd be better for you to read the book yourself. The chapters are pretty short and somewhat entertaining. Just give it a go. |

| Does every high school use the same questions? I had those same exact questions on my study guide. It is rather easy though, as it was only 2 months ago I did this test. | |||

Okies, I just read the book, and have an awesome teacher, so I'll do my best to help you out.  . . . Hmm, I went through answering all the questions until I got to number twelve when I figured, "Hmm, maybe some advice from my teacher would help this guy out, instead of spoon-feeding him the answers." My teacher tells us that "You can read, then you can read." Basically, you can read and get the basic idea of the book or you can read and understand exactly what's going on plus that much more. I suggest, you read the entire book again, and answer the questions yourself because all the answers are in there. Written out as plain as day. Of course, I'm pretty naive, and think you'll actually do it. (edited by Teddylot on 03-26-04 08:36 PM) |
