How does Nick Carraway describe the people who came to Gatsby's house that summer? What two groups of people does he describe? Do they fit their stereotypes?

1. Nick Carraway describes the people who came to Gatsby's house that summer as "jubilant strangers."  Why?  They did not know each other very well nor did they know their host, Jay Gatsby, at whose party they attended.

2.The two groups of people he describes are the East Eggers and The West Eggers.  The East Eggers are those capitalists who had been oldly rich.  The West Eggers are those capitalists who had become newly rich.

3. As capitalists and socialites, they fit their stereotypes very much.  The stereotypes show the divisions that exist in every society.  Those who had been rich since normally associated together and usually regarded the newly rich as "boys coming of age."  They did not usually mingle, except at social parties.

"everyday

use" was written by alice walker. this is a story about two sisters, dee

and maggie wanting to have the handmade quilt. maggie wants to use the thing

for its purpose, while dee appreciates it for being “her heritage”.   the quilt represents family heritage. it was

believed that only dedication and years of hard work can represent a  quilt. 

mama decided to give

the quilts to her less fortunate daughter, maggie because she believed that dee

could not hold the true meaning of their family heritage and   that she would not use the quilts for their

purpose. however, dee believed that maggie can’t appreciate the quilts just as

how she sees them, and she thought that the quilt will be put to “everyday use”

by maggie and within 5 years or so, the quilt will turn into a rag. in the story, dee strongly believed that maggie do not deserve the quilts.
