Question

How is Nick different than the others in his neighborhood?

Gatsby Chapter 1


A) He's white in a predominantly ethnic neighborhood

B) He's an outsider who didn't grow up there

C) He is considerably more wealthy than anyone else

D) He is louder and more arrogant than others

Answer 1

B

Step-by-step explanation:

As with much of the rest of the novel, Nick is a complete outsider at Gatsby's party. He is not from the same class or even from the same area of the country as the other party goers. Furthermore, Nick is one of the very few guests in attendance that is actually directly invited to the party, meaning that Gatsby has taken an interest in him.

Answer 2

B) He's an outsider who didn't grow up there
