Had Gatsby been lying when, earlier in the novel, he told Nick that he was “the son of some wealthy people in the Middle West — all dead now” (65)? Why or why not? What does Nick mean when he observes that Gatsby “sprang from his Platonic conception of himself”? What does Nick mean when he describes Gatsby as a “son of God” who takes up his Father’s “business” of creating something out of nothing? Finally, is Gatsby motivated to accumulate his wealth primarily for the romantic purpose of impressing Daisy? Or does his vision of becoming a wealthy gentleman emerged before he met Daisy?

oh i didn't know thx for tell me hallelujah

awnser:

jem is "moody and silent" after the pants incident. the new school year starts, and scout finds second grade just as boring as first. one day, she and jem are walking home together when jem reveals that when he found his pants that night, they were all folded up, and the tears had been crudely sewn up, as if someone knew that he would be coming back for them. he finds this highly eerie. then, they find a ball of twine in the radley oak tree knothole. again, they aren't sure if it is a gift for them or not, so they leave it for a few days. when it remains in the hole for a few days, they take it, and decide that anything left there is okay to take.
