Read the excerpt from Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby. My own house was an eyesore, but it was a small eyesore, and it had been overlooked, so I had a view of the water, a partial view of my neighbor's lawn, and the consoling proximity of millionaires—all for eighty dollars a month.

Across the courtesy bay the white palaces of fashionable East Egg glittered along the water, and the history of the summer really begins on the evening I drove over there.

The contrast created between East Egg and West Egg suggests that:

A. the main character feels comfortable in all social situations.

B. Nick will experience a series of financial pitfalls as the story unfolds.

C. the story’s conflict will be based on wealth and appearances.

D. the story will be presented from a number of differing perspectives.
