1. Describe the main characters and what they seem to want out of life. If you are reading nonfiction, who are the most important people involved in the events of the book, and what do they seem to want? Finally, if the book has no main characters, describe the main forces that are moving the events of the story forward. (any story)

Since you said any story, I will use the novel "The Great Gatsby", by F. Scott Fitzgerald.

Answer and Explanation:

Jay Gatsby - the main character. Gatsby wants it all - wealth, fame, love. But there are two driving forces that will lead to his ruin. First, he wants to be accepted by the rich as one of them. However, he is "new money". He has not inherited his wealth or name, which makes him "less than" in the eyes of the wealthy. Also, he has made his money criminally. That too is a reason for his shunning. Second, Gatsby wants Daisy's love, but he demands it in an impossible way. He wants her to tell her husband that she has never loved him. Gatsby wants to recreate the past, to pretend Daisy and him were never separated. The impossibility of those dreams will cause his death.

Nick Carraway - the narrator, Gatsby's neighbor, Daisy's cousin. Nick is driven by his ability to refrain from judging people too soon. That is a quality he learned from his father. He abstains from judging, which allows people to befriend and trust him, like Gatsby does. However, that ends up involving him in several inconvenient situations. Nick often finds himself witness to people's affairs and vices.

Daisy Buchanan - Gatsby's love interest, Tom's wife. Daisy is superficial. She and her husband Tom are "old money", meaning they inherited their names and wealth. Daisy is deeply unhappy but conceals such feeling under a façade of fun, lightness, disinterest. That façade is what drives her, compels her to act. She depends on other people's company and on parties and social events to distract her from her senseless life.

Tom Buchanan - a former polo player, and very wealthy, Tom is used to having everything he wants in life. Racist and misogynistic, Tom cheats on Daisy. What drives him is the sense of power he derives from his actions. Every affair, every woman, every friend and social event server the purpose of making Tom feel better about himself. He sees himself as stronger, superior, and he will do anything to justify that.

Once upon a time, there were two brothers named Mark and John, they lived in New York City. One day they went to eat in a restaurant with their Uncle, James. Uncle James is a leader of soldiers, who wanted to discover the island of Death and see what was on it.

Uncle James wanted to explore "The Death Island" because a lot of people were saying that this Island is like The Bermuda Triangle and WORSE which can bring you to death. He thought that he could defeat the fear of this island and find the treasure that was hidden inside the heart of the island. Many people tried going to the island but they all disappeared and what the people found was the remains of their body thrown in the ocean. Uncle James wanted John and Mark to go with him to discover the island because he liked the determination that Mark and John had. He went to Mark and John and asked them if they could go with him for $1,000,000.

After he offered them the money they liked the offer, they went to their mom, Sofia. They told her "Uncle James told us to go with him to the Island and we'll get $1,000,000" but she refused, so they didn’t listen to what their mom told them to do. She refused because they just want the money, not their lives.

After that, they went to Uncle James and they told him "yes we agree". This was the worst answer ever because they will endanger their lives. After All, they prepared their stuff for the journey and packed weapons with them. After that, they went to the plane to start the journey to the island.

There they saw a huge monster with five eyes and four hands. This monster broke their plane and all of the rest of the soldier's planes. After that, they all ran to escape from the monster, they were going ways they didn't even know and they didn't realize what's happening. After they calm down and relax for a second then, they walk through the jungle to explore the Island they landed on.


After that, they saw a huge spider and the spider ate 5 of the soldiers and they were about 11 people with Mark and John. After the huge spider ate the 5 soldiers Mark defeated him with a rifle, then he killed the spider. After that, they founded a boat, so they took the boat and went out of the Island.

But then, they had very bad luck because there was a huge Octopus in the lake. He ate all the soldiers, and James and John. But the one who had a very good luck is Mark because Octopus didn’t eat him so he is still alive. After that, Mark went home and he was very sad because his brother died. But then he told his mom and his mom was very sad and furious. Because they didn’t listen to what she told them.

After Mark had saved his life, he went home and he was very sad, groaning and crying like a baby because his brother died. But then he told his mom and his mom was very sad and furious. Because they didn’t listen to what she told them.
After these things happened and all the people heard about it they made a big fence, so no one can go or pass into the Island.

Drag each tile to the correct location. Identify each item as an example of plot, setting, or character. It was the middle of the morning when she stepped out into the beautiful kingdom of ice.
