July 18, 2011 Essay for The Great Gatsby

Money is not all of your life, it can't bring all thing that you

really need. From the Shakespeare's story called "The Great

Gatsby",we can know that Daisy is unhappy although she married

a rich man. The money can not only gives one a better a enjoyment

but also gives one harm. This tragedy love can be shown in the

story :the life when she married Tom, the feeling that she met

Gatsby .These shows that the money that is not perfect as Daisy

think.The love for money can't bring Daisy the real love and she

was living a word of regret.

By describing when she married Tom, it shows us how that

Daisy is not as happy as she thinks. Before she married, she was

struggling with herself ,"'She groped around in a waste-basket she

had with her on the bed and puled out the string of the

pearls.'Take'em downstairs and give 'em back to whoever they

belong to. Tell'em all Daisy change her mine.Say:Daisy's change'

her mine!'"(Shakespeare 74 ） Daisy shows her emotion that she

didn't want to married Tom. Her choose about love for money is a

mistake and she has no way to change her mind .As the readers see

in this quote, the love between Daisy and Tom is so fragile when

she faced her real lover Gatsby.When Nick saw Daisy's baby,

Daisy shows her wish to her daughter ,"''All right ,' I said ,' I'm

glad it;s a girl .And I hope she'll be a fool-that's the best thing a girl

can be in this world, a beautiful little fool.'"This is the word in her

heart because she knows the thing about another lover and she

pretended to be a wife that knows nothing. It shows the her heart

pain about this unfortunate love with Tom, she is unhappy.

Shakespeare shows us that even the money can bring Daisy a short

time for her vanity, which also gives a unhappy marriage all her

life.
