Pre-reading Q2
2 Fitzgerald’s Dream is to become a famous writer. He hoped to make a fortune with a career in advertising, so that he could propose to Zelda, a beauty from the South, but he can only marry her after his rewritten first novel (This Side of Paradise) has become a huge success. They lived in New York in great luxury.

pre-reading Q 3
3 Zelda and Scott Fitzgerald had too many parties going on and they drank far too much, which kept him from his work. Then, Zelda developed schizophrenia and Scott was always in trouble finding ways to pay for the medical bills. Scott and Zelda became estranged, she living in a mental institution in the East and Scott writing for the cinema in Hollywood.

pre-reading Q4
The Roaring Twenties is a term sometimes used to refer to the 1920s in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom, characterizing the decade's distinctive cultural edge in New York City, Chicago, Paris, Berlin, London, and many other major cities during a period of sustained economic prosperity. Jazz music blossomed, the flapper (women in the 1920s who wore short skirts, bobbed their hair, listened to jazz, and flaunted their disdain for what was then considered acceptable behavior) redefined modern womanhood, and Art Deco peaked. Economically, the era saw the large-scale diffusion and use of automobiles, telephones, motion pictures, and electricity, unprecedented industrial growth, accelerated consumer demand and aspirations, and significant changes in lifestyle and culture. The media focused on celebrities, especially sports heroes and movie stars, as cities rooted for their home team and filled the new palatial cinemas and gigantic stadiums. In most major countries women won the right to vote for the first time. Finally the Wall Street Crash of 1929 ended the era, as the Great Depression set in worldwide, bringing years of worldwide gloom and hardship.
