Gatsby Reading Exam Questions
with Answers All Correct

What does Michaelis believe caused Myrtle to run? - Answer-Michaelis believe that
Myrtle was just running away from Wilson because he had locked her up.

Why did she run? - Answer-Myrtle actually ran because he had seen that Tom was
driving Gatsby's yellow car earlier that day, so she thought that he was still driving it and
was flagging him down.

Why does Wilson believe that Gatsby killed Myrtle? - Answer-Wilson believes this
because Tom told him that the yellow car belonged to Gatsby.

What does Wilson do? - Answer-Wilson shoots Gatsby and then kills himself.

What kind of person is Daisy? - Answer-Daisy is a kind and charming person who is
engaging and makes people feel like there is no one that she would rather see. She
seems to be a happy person while also having an underlying sadness to her. Having
bright eyes, a passionate mouth, and a face full of excitement, she has a certain
innocence to her. She seems to fake a lot of her innocence though.

What did Miss Baker tell Nick about Tom? - Answer-Miss Baker tells Nick that Tom has
a mistress in New York City.

On pg. 2, when introducing his story, the narrator talks about why he left the East
(meaning that after all of the novel's events happen, the narrator leaves). How does he
seem to feel about the East and the people in it? - Answer-He doesn't like the people in
the East and feels that it is not moral. Gatsby was the only man in the East that he didn't
hate. Something happened to Gatsby that made him hate the East even more. So in
other words, everything surrounding Gatsby is what made Nick hate the East.

When asked about her daughter, what does Daisy say? - Answer-When questioned,
Daisy at first just says that they don't know each other well and that hardship has made
her cynical, but eventually she just says that when her daughter was born, she said that
she was glad it was a girl but hoped that she would be a fool because the best thing that
a girl can be is a beautiful fool.

Why couldn't Nick get anyone to come to Gatsby's funeral? - Answer-Nick couldn't get
anyone to come because Gatsby has no friends or people in his life that actually care
about him. Everyone that came to his parties during the summer were only there to
have a good time. Most of them didn't even know Gatsby. Daisy left town with Tom,

, Wolfsheim just makes excuses and is too shady to come, and Klipspringer cares more
about getting the shoes he left at Gatsby's back.

Who is Henry C. Gatz? - Answer-Henry C. Gatz is Gatsby's father.

What is the book Henry Gatz shows Nick? - Answer-Henry shows Nick Hopalong
Cassidy. It has one of Gatsby's old schedules in it.

Why is this information important to the novel? - Answer-its important because it shows
how he plans things out and his desire to become a morally good person. It shows how
much money has really corrupted him.

What happens between Nick and Jordan Baker? - Answer-Nick breaks up with Jordan
because he can't get over how easily it seemed to be for her to go along with everything
that had happened.

How does the narrator describe Gatsby? - Answer-The narrator describes Gatsby as
having something gorgeous about him. He also says that Gatsby is optimistic about life,
has an extraordinary gift for hope, and is romantic in a way that no one else is.

From where did the narrator come and why? - Answer-The narrator left his home city in
the Middle West to go East to New York City and learn the bond business. He also
wishes to experience the excitement he felt during WWI.

Describe the narrator's house. - Answer-The narrator's house is a small, weather-
beaten cardboard bungalow in one of New York City's commuting towns on an island
overlooking the bay and sandwiched in between two huge mansions.

Describe the Buchanan's house. - Answer-The Buchanan's house is a red-and-white
Georgian Colonial mansion overlooking the bay with a lawn stretching from the beach to
the front door and covered in vines. The front had a line of French windows. The yard
also had roses and a sunken Italian garden.

How does Nick know Daisy and Tom? - Answer-Nick knew Tom in college and Daisy
was his second cousin once removed.

Describe Tom. What is our impression of him in Chapter 1? - Answer-Tom is a huge
guy who was previously one of the most powerful ends that ever played football as New
Haven. He is a sturdy straw-haired man of thirty with a hard mouth, arrogant eyes, and
power body. He has always been wealthy, and seems to be a somewhat cruel man,
very opinionated, and judgement. Upon first impression, he doesn't seem to be very
likable.
