PART 1-- Connor (Xiaohan) Xu -- The American dream freed America from the world.

                              👆👆👆👆👆  Mexico🇲🇽 –United States🇺🇸 barrier

 I think the American Dream seems to protect the benefit of America, but makes America more and more out of this world. 
"A wall at the border between the US and Mexico would be designed to prevent people from entering the US illegally." Like this picture, the idea of this picture is the United States built a wall on the US-Mexico border to reduce illegal immigrants and drugs from Mexico. This is part of the realization of the American Dream, which protects the benefit of Americans.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    My Ideas:
    But I think the wall built also inspired the conflict between America and Mexico. This matter shows that the American Dream is a kind of unilateralism. Although this incident guarantees domestic security, it does not guarantee the security of America. The essence of the American dream is to bring peace to people, but this kind of thing endangers American peace. Isolating America from the world may be a kind of protection, but it will bring more regression. Like the history we learned, the Qing emperor of China believed that his country had the most advanced technology and had all the resources, so he closed the country. But the world is developing very fast, and soon other countries have surpassed China by a lot, then Britain defeated China. 
 
   👈👈👈       This is an idealized American dream, the realization of the American dream should not be separated from the world, which may bring short-term economic progress, but it is not long-term. Because increasing estrangement will only lose the trust of other countries, not become stronger! The world now becomes more global 🌎 than before, doing so now will lose trade and technology from other countries. This is the blind arrogance of the American dream.

        The Character Analysis Connects the American Dream             Alisa's   Blog !!!!!!!!!        Hi, class! Do you remember what I said about the American dream? Today I'm going to connect it with The Great Gatsby . I think Tom is the most memorable person for me. Let's see what kind of person Tom is in The Great Gatsby.👇👇👇👇👇           Tom  is an Old Money who has a high statu s in the society.💰💰💰 He got married with Daisy, and they have a daughter👨‍👩‍👧. However, he cheated on Daisy because he has a mistress . The common thing between his mistresses is that they are both the poor . Tom is a self-absorbed person and  believes in basic inequalities of people based on birth. He  looks down on the poor, even the New Money.       As I mentioned in the Part 1, I think the American Dream shows that everyone wants to have a good family and be  😃 😀 😄 , but only few of rich people can achieve that. The rich people believe that the status is base

💥💥💥💥💥💥💥 Watch out 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥 Your follow-up is coming Again, welcome to my site！💆💆💆💆💆💆💆💆💆💆💆💆💆💆💆 Let me introduce some 👦👧👦👧👦👧 to u guys.................. 👩------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 👩  Daisy： (nice face~~~) In fact, in the Great Gatsby story, Daisy is the embodiment of the American dream . In other words, she is the dream pursued by the middle and lower classes represented by Gatsby. Daisy was born in an upper-class family. She only has a sense of dependence on the material . She is selfish in feelings. The person she loves is h erself (only herself ???, DON'T USE THIS WORD, lol👎👎👎) Her beauty is her best tool, a tool used to induce others. She is a beautiful but fickle woman herself, an introverted and boring person. Daisy's spiritual world is driven by money . She believes that money makes everything better and even more beautiful . 👨-------

Hi, this is Lynn!  In   the Great Gatsby ,  Daisy is the most  mysterious  and  complicated  character. Just as Daisy’s name, her appearance is as beautiful as a flower🔅🔅.  However , her personality is so  vain and selfish😨 . She easily abandoned  Gatsby  and married with  Tom   only because Tom has money and status , though she was supposed to wait for Gatsby to come back from war.  For Daisy, her own happiness and success is established on money and fame.  Therefore, to realize her own “American Dream”, she has to choose from her  old love  and her  carefree future , and Daisy immediately selects  the latter.😞 🌑🌒🌓🌔🌕🌖🌗🌘🌑🌒🌓🌔🌕🌖🌗🌘 Do you remember  my definition of American dream  in the last part? As I said before, the American Dream is a dream which  advocates self-accomplishment . In order to  realize  our own success, we will  focus more on ourselves , and gradually we will  have less patience and empathy to listen to others and understand each other.
