the english had two main meals breakfast and dinner. breakfast was ale, bread and beef. dinner was a long, massive meal at the end of the day. it was no wonder that anna, the duchess ofbedford(1788 1861) experienceda “sinking feeling”in the late afternoon. so she invited friends to join her for an additional afternoon meal at five oclock in her castle. the menu centered around small cakes, bread and butter sandwiches, and, of course, tea. this summer practice proved so popular that the duchess continued it when she returned tolondon, sending cards to her friends asking them to join her for “tea and a walking the fields”.the practice of inviting friends to come for tea in the afternoon was quickly picked up by other social hostesses. a common pattern of service soon came into practice. the first pot of tea was made in the kitchen and carried to the lady of the house who waited with her invited guests, surrounded by fine porcelain（瓷器）from china. the first pot was warmed by the

f. scott fitzgerald that follows a cast of characters living in the fictional town of west egg on long island in the summer of 1922. nick carraway rents a small house in west egg on long island, next door to the expensive house of jay gatsby, a mysterious millionaire who often holds extravagant（奢侈的）parties. nicks cousin, daisy, and her husband, tom, a college classmate of nicks, live in east egg across the bay.nick later learns that gatsby knew and fell in love with daisy in 1917 and is still deeply in love with her. he spends many nights staring at her house across the bay from his house, hoping to recover their lost relationship one day. gatsbys extravagant lifestyle and wild parties are an attempt to impress daisy in the hope that she will one day appear again at gatsbys doorstep. with the help of nick, gatsby and daisy get in touch again. but after a short time, tom forces the group to drive into new york city, saying that he and daisy have a history that gatsby could never understand. in addition, he announces that gatsby is a criminal whose fortune comes from illegal activities. daisy realizes that her allegiance（忠心）is to tom, and tom sends her back to east egg with gatsby, attempting to prove that gatsby cannot hurt him.when nick and tom drive home, they discover that gatsbys car has struck and killed myrtle. nick later learns from gatsby that daisy, not gatsby himself, was driving the car at the time of the accident but gatsby intends to take the blame anyway. myrtles husband, george, arrives at gatsbys house and fatally（致命地）shoots both gatsby and then himself. nick stages a small funeral for gatsby with few coming to mourn the passing of his romantic dream. after that, nick moves back to the midwest, disillusioned（幻滅）with the eastern lifestyle.at
