The professor didn’t set any instructions but basically we got to pick to ads (they’re linked) and we need to talk about how similar or different they are and we need to state the rhetorical strategy used as in pathos, logos or ethos along with evidence like how the commercial used texts or sounds to grab the audience’s attention all in all it is ad analysis and she wanted an introduction and three body paragraphs and a conclusion. During the three body paragraphs I want the layout to be like (ad 1) (ad 2) (ad1 and ad2)

Write an essay on your favorite hobby. When making the thesis do not state what the essay is about. Make thesis statement in bold font. Absolutely no plagiarism!

This assignment provides two routes that the writer can take. All instructions will be provided in the files. Note that this is an academic paper that requires references from the book Beloved and the course literature by Barry when discussing. No discussing in the air is acceptable. To draw conclusions after the proposed information and material, that is encouraged however. There has to be a point with the essay of course. A clear introductory paragraph followed by a discussion and concluding paragraph. Don’t use overly fancy words. Simple formal language please.
Use times new roman, font size 12, with 1.5 spacing. Follow other general guidelines for academic writing. The reference style is MLA.
Remember, when talking about events from the actual book, you have to provide page numbers or quotes. It is not enough to talk around the events as if the reader is well familiarized with it. Proper referencing and evidence to support claims and conclusions is needed.

1. Fitzgerald wrote many essays and stories about the young men and women of the 1920’s. In a short paragraph, describe the ways in which young people rebelled following an era of rigidity before World War I. Please give three reasons.
2. Write a brief paragraph discussing some possible causes of the end of the Roaring 20’s. Based on what you know, to what can the Great Depression be attributed? Please give three reasons for the end of the Roaring 20s and the beginning of the Great Depression.
3. How might Fitzgerald’s writing style be effective in capturing the essence of the 1920’s in America? Please give three reasons.

1. At the end of Chapter 5, Fitzgerald concludes with an observation by Nick about Gatsby’s afternoon with Daisy. Reread the following passage and then answer the question that follows using textual evidence for support.
“As I went over to say good-by I saw that the expression of bewilderment had come back to Gatsby’s face, as though a faint doubt had occurred to him as to the quality of his present happiness. Almost five years! There must have been moments even that afternoon when Daisy tumbled short of his dreams—not through her own fault, but because of the colossal vitality of his illusion. It had gone beyond her, beyond everything. He had thrown himself into it with a creative passion, adding to it all the time, decking it out with every bright feather that drifted his way.”
Give two detailed examples of parts of Gatsby’s life that contributed to an illusion in his mind that was outrageous or hard to compete with. Please include one quote for support.
2. The theme that attaining a goal/dream is much less satisfying than aspiring to one applies perfectly to The Great Gatsby. How does Gatsby’s love of Daisy support this theme? Please give three reasons.
3. How does the conflict between Gatsby and Daisy come to a boiling point in Chapter 7? Choose and describe two significant events of the chapter and how they affect (or may affect) Gatsby and Daisy’s relationship. Please use at least one quote for support.
4. Now that you have finished the novel, reread and reevaluate Nick’s words in the opening chapter of the novel. He says:
“Only Gatsby, the man who gives his name to this book, was exempt from my reaction — Gatsby, who represented everything for which I have an unaffected scorn. If personality is an unbroken series of successful gestures, then there was something gorgeous about him, some heightened sensitivity to the promises of life, as if he were related to one of those intricate machines that register earthquakes ten thousand miles away. This responsiveness had nothing to do with that flabby impressionability which is dignified under the name of the “creative temperament.”— it was an extraordinary gift for hope, a romantic readiness such as I have never found in any other person and which it is not likely I shall ever find again. No — Gatsby turned out all right at the end; it is what preyed on Gatsby, what foul dust floated in the wake of his dreams that temporarily closed out my interest in the abortive sorrows and short-winded elations of men.”
Using this passage for support, explain why Fitzgerald, after much debate, ultimately decided to title the novel The Great Gatsby. Please give three reasons and use one quote from the passage for support.

1. Based on your knowledge of point of view and the reliable versus the unreliab

1. Based on your knowledge of point of view and the reliable versus the unreliable narrator, as well as the information presented in Chapter 1, can Nick be considered a reliable or an unreliable narrator?
2 Tom’s affair with Myrtle suggests that she satisfies him in ways that Daisy cannot. In what ways are Myrtle and Daisy similar and how do they differ?
State one way in which they are the same and two ways in which they are different.

3. How does Fitzgerald create Gatsby to be above or more important than the other characters of the novel? Give three examples.
4. Jordan Baker’s story about Daisy’s marriage to Tom Buchanan gives details about the night before the wedding.
Choose two details from the story that prove that Daisy did not want to marry Tom and one example that proves she may have been right.

The writer will be given two choices. Choose only one and follow its instructions. I will attach it in the files.
Times new Roman, font size 12, spacing 1.5. Follow general academic writing guidelines. Don’t use overly fancy words, just normal and simple formal language. Have a clear point with the paper so it doesn’t just talk around the subjects. Prove and discuss the point with the help of evidence from the book “Love Medicine” with the help of the course literature by Barry. Referencing is key here as it is the basis for the paper to conduct the discussion.
