Scott Fitzgerald: The diamond as big as the Ritz +=================================================== + +# Chapter 2 + +John, Percy and negroes + +John and Percy finally arrive at the train station where negroes are already +positioned and prepared for their arrival. John is very astonished after +seeing the wealth that revolves around Percy. The first thing he notices are +emeralds and other wealthy decorations of the car, and he is completely +speechless. + +... + +# Questions + +## What does the Fish point to? + +The Fish is a minimalistic and forgotten village in the woods of northern +parts of the United Stated, it is a secret entrance to the Percy's father's +palace. + +## How is the village of "Fish" depicted and what message does the author +convey? + +The author tries to picture a sense of dark, cloudy and moody weather, dark +green trees and an unpleasant environment for bypassers, making sure no one +would come near the old minute village. + +## Which detail shows that Braddock Washington keeps his wealth secret? + +The long drive and the shallow and cumbersome path leading to the great +treasure. + +## Why is John amazed by the limousine? + +Because he'd never seen such wealth before with his own eyes, being a rich man +he is simply amazed. The interior is overdone with silk, gold and other +expensive qualities, such as luxurious armchairs. + +## In which area is the castle located and why nobody knows that it exists? + +Because trespassers are killed, geolocation services are altered, and +aeroplanes are shot down. And of course because the village is so hidden and +unmapped most think it's already in Canada. + +## Provide the words/expressions that describe the luxurious possession and +are glutted with showy imagery and expensive adjectives. + +* the village of Fish, minute, dismal and forgotten. +* gigantic bruise +* dark arteries +* pointless and preposterous phenomenon + +## What is the only thing Mr. Washington is afraid of? + +Whatever happened at the end of the story. Getting caught and losing his +fortune. + +## How does John respond to their excessive affluence + +He falls asleep due to the astonishment. He is very kind and shows great +respect towards the owners of the great property. |
