NickiDaisyJordanTomGatsby For each character, write down five characterizing adjectives to describe what you know about them. Characterizing adjectives should be features that can be backed up with evidence from the text.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Nick: intelligent, naive, observant, pure, discreet

Daisy: vain, shallow, passionate, insensitive, selfish

Jordan: straightforward, smart, experienced, fun-loving, accepting

Tom: determined, brave, aggressive, deceitful, unfaithful

Gatsby: ambitious, naive, honest, pure-hearted, intense

Nick is new to the vanity of society, its shallowness and selfishness. He believes people to be good and he is discreet, not discussing other people's affairs.

Daisy, on the other hand, is skilled in the art of social climbing. She and her friend Jordan accept reality and society as they are and know how to make the best out of situations. Daisy only thinks of herself and what is best for her and her lifestyle. Jordan is a smart woman, but she has chosen fun over love, a superficial reality over profound dreams.

Tom and Gatsby are opposites. The former is a brute born rich. The latter is a gentleman born poor. Tom, just like his wife, Daisy, understands how the world works and how to make the best out of it. He's used to having anything he wants and knows how to keep the upper hand. Gatsby, though, is ambitious but innocent. Even though he is a criminal, he's inherently good and, just like Nick, believes there is goodness in everyone. That is precisely his mistake. He idolizes Daisy, failing to see her ugly selfish heart.

A is a sentence fragment because it cuts right into the middle of a sentence. This would be classified as a subordinate fragment because it makes itself out as a complete sentence and it is not. Please tell me if I got this wrong.

Which statement is an example of a compound sentence?

Answers

Answer:  The statement that is an example of a compound sentence is C. I'm trying to learn Spanish, and my friend's trying to learn French.

Explanation: A compound sentence is a sentence made up of two or more independent clauses that are joined by means of a coordinating conjunction or a semicolon. An independent clause is a clause that expresses a complete thought; therefore, it can stand alone as a sentence. C. is an example of a compound sentence because it includes two independent clauses ("I'm trying to learn Spanish" and "My friend's trying to learn French"). Moreover, both clauses have been joined by means of the coordinating conjunction "and".

Answer:

Those who helped influence and inspire Eileen Collins -to become an astronaut- when she was a young girl were the Mercury astronauts.

Explanation:

As the article says - published in 2003 - Eileen Collins became the first woman to become a mission commander at NASA.

Born in Elmira, NY on 11/19/1956, she was chosen for an astronaut training program at NASA when she was just one month in the Air Force. He has a bachelor's degree in mathematics-economics and a master's degree in space systems management.

In her own words -during the interview- she explains that the Mercury mission astronauts inspired her when she was very young, despite knowing that there were no female astronauts.

He says that although she is the first female commander at NASA, she hopes not to be the last.

A source of inspiration for all young Americans.
