Preparation for 3.14.2014
Read Ch.4
Tomorrow we will have a Socratic Seminar focusing on the Ch. 3 & 4
Socratic Seminar opening questions:
1) Why does Fitzgerald choose to highlight this specific class of the 1920s?
2) Do you agree that nick is honest and Nonjudgemental? Can you call yourself honest and nonjudgemental?
3) Is Nick a trustworthy narrator?
4) "There are only the pursued, the pursuing, the busy and the tired" (pg 78). Why do you think Nick repeats this over and over? What do you think it means? What does it say about his lifestyle and the people who he hangs out with?
