When Tom, Mr. Sloane, and a female acquaintance visit Gatsby unannounced, the woman invites Gatsby to dinner. The party then leaves Gatsby's house without waiting for him, even though he wants to join them. This suggests:

how people of all social levels are charmed by Gatsby.

how old money treats new money in the 1920s.

why Gatsby's house is an important part of his life.

how rudely some people treat social equals.

how impatience makes people act rudely.


When Daisy kisses Gatsby at her house after she's sent Tom to get drinks, there's an implied parallel to:

he hurts people, and then avoids taking responsibility for his actions.


In Langston Hughes's"Harlem," the connection between the title and the questions concerning the dream's deferral is that:

Harlem residents tend to ask lots of questions.

The dreams of the residents of Harlem are going unrealized, or are being delayed.

Harlem residents were once quite angry but now have only gentle responses to delayed dreams.

Harlem's geography inspires residents to ask questions.

Harlem residents participate fully in the American dream.



The final line of Langston Hughes's"Harlem" refers to an explosion. This suggests that:

a terrible accident occurred in Harlem.

dreams put off too long may cause their owners trouble.

it's unwise to dream.

only the wealthy should dream.

dreams put off for too long may result in violence.
