For Wednesday
Find a quote from Chapter 7 that backs up each statement of character:
- Tom is a PRAGMATIST (when you deal with a problem in a realistic way rather than obeying fixed theories, ideas or rules). Think about his attitude to those who are different from him: is he a ‘successful’ character?
- George is a ROMANTIC. Think about how he feels about his wife and what he will do for her. How does he react when he learns of the affair?
- Gatsby is an IDEALIST (someone who believes that very good things can be achieved, often when this does not seem likely to others). Why does he pursue Daisy? What is his impression of her? Does he really want Daisy or just the dream of her?
Then, read Chapter 8!
On Wednesday, we will be finishing work on Chapter 7- the turning point- and starting work on Chapter 8. So be prepared!
