Question

The windows were ajar and gleaming white against the fresh grass outside that seemed to grow a little way into the house. A breeze blew through the room, blew curtains in at one end and out the other like pale flags, twisting them up toward the frosted wedding-cake of the ceiling, and then rippled over the wine-colored rug, making a shadow on it as wind does on the sea. Based on this excerpt, what inference can be made about the Buchanans? They are people of exquisite taste and refinement, who have spent a fortune on the decorations of their home. The image of luxury and elegance that they project is unstable like the wind blowing through the room. The Buchanans have fallen on desperate times and are trying to mask their financial collapse from friends. Like the open windows of their house, the Buchanans openly embrace new people and new ideas.

Answer 1

"The Great Gatsby" is a novel written by American author F. Scott Fitzgerald and published on April 10th, 1925. The story follows Gatsby, the main character, as he lives in prosperous Long Island in the summer of 1922.

What inference can be made about the Buchanans?

Correct answer is option B.

• The image of luxury and elegance that they project is unstable like the wind blowing through the room.

Based on the excerpt provided in the question, the main inference that can be made about the Buchanan's and their home is the sense of luxury and elegance that the couple wants to project to the outside, is not so stable on the inside.

The room is filed with luxury with its curtains and rug, but it is also affected by wedding-cake on the ceiling and wine stains on the rug.

Tom and Daisy's house represents how deeply influenced by society both of them were, to follow and fit into a specific lifestyle. But it also shows how stiff and disconnected their relationship was.

Therefore, correct answer is option B.
