Answer:

"I like your dress, I think it's adorable" is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question refers to two characters of The Great Gatsby, a novel by American writer Francis Scott Fitzgerald. This novel narrates the life of Jay Gatsby, a millionaire who receives a lot of attention due to many reasons. Myrtle Wilson is the wife of George and Mr. Buchanan's mistress; Mrs. McKee is a minor character that lives in the same building as Myrtle and Mr. Buchanan.
