Option 1, his silk tie gleams in the sunlight, is an example of "exploding a moment."
To explode a moment is to slow it down, to write in slow motion, so that every little detail, trait, feeling is exacerbated. The idea is to provide as many details as possible in order to make the reader aware of everything that is going on.
The rest of the sentences, although they convey a message, do not provide as many intimate details as option 1.

Read the following excerpt from F. Scott Fitzgerald's
The Great Gatsby
:
I spent my Saturday nights in New York, because those gleaming,
dazzling parties of his were with me so vividly that I could still hear the
music and the laughter, faint and incessant, from his garden, and the
cars going up and down his drive. One night I did hear a material car
there, and saw its lights stop at his front steps. But I didn't investigate.
Probably it was some final guest who had been away at the ends of
the earth and didn't know that the party was over.

? What aesthetic impact is it meant
to have on the reader? Be sure to cite evidence from the reading to support your claim
The excerpt from 'The Great Gatsby' evokes the transient nature of Gatsby's parties and symbolizes the fleeting American Dream of the 1920s. Nick Carraway's narration, filled with wistful nostalgia, highlights the era's passing splendor and the disillusionment that follows unfulfilled aspirations. Fitzgerald uses the narrative to underscore the novel's themes of aspiration and the harsh reality behind the American Dream.
Explanation:The excerpt from The Great Gatsby serves to illustrate the ephemerality of Gatsby's parties and, by extension, the fleeting nature of the American Dream in the 1920s. The described Saturday nights reinforce the theme of transience and the illusion of permanence in the face of social mobility. The aesthetic impact lies in evoking a sense of nostalgia and loss, enriched by Nick Carraway's detailed and colored observations of his environment.
The lines from the excerpt suggest a world that has moved on from the excitement and unrestrained revelry of Gatsby's parties, leaving behind only muted echoes. It mirrors the disillusionment with wealth and success that is central to Fitzgerald's critique of the era. The narrative voice of Nick is both intimate and observant, painting the aura of the time with a vivid brush that similarly colors our understanding of the characters and their circumstances.
Automobile lights that once signaled the arrival of yet another festivity now only mark the remnants of a bygone era. The car stopping in front of Gatsby's house is a stark reminder that while the parties have ended, their resonance remains. Overall, it underscores the novel's central themes of aspiration, disillusionment, and the stark reality behind the facade of the American Dream.

In his introductory note Yann Martel says, "This book was born as I was hungry." What sort of emotional nourishment might life of Pi have given to it's author?
Answer:
Yann Martel's philosophical novel "The Life of Pi" explores the issues of spirituality and metaphysics that one experiences in their life. The protagonist Pi Patel leads us through his journey, shipwrecked and stranded on a lifeboat with a Bengal tiger, which also serves as a way of the author addressing what is real or not.
Explanation:
In his introductory note of the novel, the author Yann Martel wrote that "this book was born as I was hungry". In this case, it does not necessarily mean the literal hunger for food or anything to eat. It may also mean the hunger for success, for any fulfillment in his profession, the hunger for anything to help him write, an inspiration or enlightenment etc. Thus, the emotional contentment, nourishment that he got was the novel, the writing of this story, the discovery of the life story of Pi Patel. The encounter with an Indian man who told him the story from which his novel was based, was also what made him appreciate the emotional fulfillment he got personally. This was enough for him, feeding his hunger and getting a story that is both magnificently beautiful as well as life- changing, even to the extent of making someone believe in God.
Further Explanation:
Yann Martel exclaims that the book "The Life of Pi" was a result of his hunger, with the exact quote going as "This book was born as I was hungry". Now, he did not mean the hunger for food or something to eat. Instead, he was rather commenting in his need to be inspired and enlightened so that he might be able to produce a full and fitting story to be shown or given to the world. This story was a result of his 'hunger' for contentment, for fulfillment.
Before he encountered the Indian man who would later tell him about a story that will enable him to believe in god, he (Yann Martel) had been on the lookout for any possible true story that will feed his hunger. So, this completion, this 'food' that the Indian man's story provided him was nothing sort of an emotional fulfillment. The thrill that he got from the publication of this story gave him a genuine feeling of feeling full, a feeling he was looking for and far better than he had previously expected.
"The Story of Pi" has the ability to affect the very core of human spirit, even leading the author to renew his belief in the power of art and more importantly, the power of a truly good story. Discussing the importance of this story even to his personal life, Martel indirectly referred to those times in his professional career where he was left with nothing and no productive work coming out from him. But, this failure which he termed "hunger" was also what led him to bring about the most fulfilling work of his. The success also made him understand the art of story telling and the inspirations that are proofs of the importance of imagination.

2. Write a summary of the following paragraph: “How long I sat beside Calypso I don't know. Hunger and weariness vanished, and only after the sun was low in the west I splashed on through the swamp, strong and exhilarated as if never more to feel any mortal care. At length I saw maple woods on a hill and found a log house. I was gladly received. "Where ha ye come fra? The swamp, that awfu' swamp. What were ye doin' there?" etc. "Mony a puir body has been lost in that muckle, cauld, dreary bog and never been found." When I told her I had entered it in search of plants and had been in it all day, she wondered how plants could draw me to these awful places and said, "It's god's mercy ye ever got out."
In this passage, the author talks about how enchanted he was by Calypso. He tells us that this led to him forgetting his weariness and his hunger. However, as the sun was going down, he had to go back and cross the swamp. He did not mind this, but as he arrived to a log house and was received, the woman who welcomed him seemed to be surprised. She scolded him, saying that the swamp was a dangerous place and that many people had died. She told him that it was very lucky he got out.
