The great Gatsby's sentences are beautiful and interesting. It depicts the appearance, character and action of Tom, Daisy and Gatsby in detail. Every character in the author's works is full and soul-like, which makes the content of the article more colorful. These characters are vivid, they have both advantages and disadvantages. For example, Gatsby's disadvantage is to fabricate his own background. He still has fantasies about married women. His advantage is to ignore love, his feelings are pure, he is rich but not arrogant, do not despise others. On the contrary, he was very gentle and humble, so Nick felt comfortable with him. He is also a man eager to succeed and good at seizing opportunities. So he succeeded in the end. Daisy is often criticized as a villain. She is a typical gold worshipper who loves wealth, money first and pursues material enjoyment. No sincere feeling in her eyes can match wealth. Her flirtation with Gatsby was nothing more than a stimulus to idle boredom. It can be said that Daisy is the origin and direct maker of Gatsby's unfortunate ending. She had no feelings for Gatsby, who loved her so much, but only cold-blooded. Her husband, Tom, and she are the same kind of person. His ugly act of framing Gatsby is shameful. He has the typical bad habits and shortcomings of dandy children. The book ends with tragedy, which brings infinite lamentation and regret, but also a lot of thinking. I think the reason Gatsby is great is that he tried to get into the upper class, just to recover the love lost because of poverty, which is the root of his tragedy, but also the reason why he deserves to be respected. Some pure dreams, desperate for the pursuit of love; although rich will not be arrogant and arrogant, still humble and gentle as jade; a brave pursuit of the heart; for the love of willing to sacrifice sin. Gatsby's life is enough to tell us that material does not bring happiness , and that life with more money is not necessarily a better life. Heart is not happy , no matter how busy life can not settle a lonely heart. Satisfaction and happiness have nothing to do with money. The more ordinary it is, the more precious it is sometimes. The right pursuit, not poor life, optimistic contentment, ordinary happiness, perhaps these simple, but the happiest. And when we face life, we should always keep a clear mind, not belong to their own expectations, not nostalgia, we can learn from Gatsby's persistence, his high requirements for himself, his humility, but can not agree with his inner persistence. Life is beautiful. There are many people around us who deserve our efforts.
