Reread the quote from Chapter 5 below. Then answer the following questions. Use what you know about The Great Gatsby to support your answers.

"He took out a pile of shirts and began throwing them, one by one, before us, shirts of sheer linen and thick silk and fine flannel, which lost their folds as they fell and covered the table in many-colored disarray. While we admired he brought more and the rich heap mounted higher -- shirts with stripes and scrolls and plaids in coral and apple-green and lavender and faint orange, with monograms of Indian blue. Suddenly, with a strained sound, Daisy bent her head into the shirts and began to cry stormily.

'They're such beautiful shirts,' [Daisy] sobbed, her voice muffled in the thick folds. 'It makes me sad because I've never seen such -- such beautiful shirts before'" (Fitzgerald 92).

1. What is the context of the quote? Where are the characters in this moment, and why has Gatsby started throwing his shirts?

2. List two examples of imagery that the author uses to describe the shirts. Use examples that appeal to more than one sense.

3. Why would Daisy cry over Gatsby's shirts? Use what you know about their past and why she married Tom instead of Gatsby to support your answer. Your answer must be a paragraph of 3-8 sentences.

1. The context of the quote "They're such beautiful shirts," she sobbed, her muffled in the folds. ... In The Great Gatsby, Daisy's reaction to the shirts demonstrates both her regret and her materialism. This moment happens during her first visit to Gatsby's mansion.

They are in Gatsby's Mansion and the shirts symbolize the way Gatsby is trying to impress—to buy—Daisy with his wealth. He believes that his money makes him worthy of her love. ... Of course, the efforts he goes to and the way he throws out all his shirts before her show that wealth will never come effortlessly to him.

2.

•Maybe the shirts being wrinkled and tossed everywhere symbolize how Gatsby felt when Daisy left him because he wasn't rich enough, or how Daisy feels when she's with Tom.

•The shirts being thrown around so carelessly shows that in The Great Gatsby objects that are as simple as a shirt don't matter, regardless of the emotions or memories connected to them. That things like shirts are just another materialistic thing

3. She starts to cry. She realises then that had she waited she could have had both: money and love. Daisy needs financial securiry, which her husband provides. She is materialistic. She gets emotional at the sight of lifeless, yet expensive shirts. She does not cry even when she sees Gatsby again to whom she even refers as an object.
