Does Gatsby achieve the American Dream? If yes, when exactly can he say that he reaches it? If not, what prevents him from truly achieving it? Explain.

Answer:

Gatsby achieves the American Dream.

Explanation:

In the novel "The Great Gatsby", Jay Gatsby achieves the American Dream. Growing up poor, Gatsby's main goal was to become rich and climb up the social ladder. He puts all of his effort in this dream and finally achieves it. His achievements and wealth were so huge that he ultimately becomes a renowned figure in the society.

Summarize in 3-8 sentences each example separately. What is Romeo saying in each of these?
Romeo 1
.
o
ROMEO: I fear, too early: for my mind misgives Some consequence yet hanging in the stars,
Shall bitterly begin his fearful date
With this night's revels and expire the term
Of a despised life closed in my breast
By some vile forfeit of untimely death.
But He, that hath the steerage of my course, Direct my sail!
On, lusty gentlemen
Romeo 2:
ROMEO: O, she doth teach the torches to burn bright!
It seems she hangs upon the cheek of night Like a rich jewel in an Ethiope's ear;
Beauty too rich for use, for earth too dear!
•So shows a snowy dove trooping with crows, As yonder lady o'er her fellows shows,
•The measure done, I'll watch her place of stand, And, touching hers, make blessed my rude hand.
Did my heart love till now? forswear it, sight!
For I ne'er saw true beauty till this night.
