1
Welcome to the Roaring Twenties, old sport.
2
The 1920s, that is.
3
The American economy is booming,
4
the champagne is flowing, and the flappers are flapping.
5
It's a time when savvy Americans could become rich beyond their wildest dreams.
6
But beneath all the glitz and glamour is the whiff of something rotten.
7
All is not what it seems.
8
Meet our narrator, Nick Carraway.
9
He's a patient and honest young man, well-educated and wise.
10
Nick's family are the descendants of Scottish dukes and well-established in America's Midwest.
11
In other words, Nick comes from old money.
12
After graduating from Yale University in 1915,
13
Nick went to fight in the Great War, and he enjoyed it.
14
Nick's not really the alpha type,
15
but alpha males are drawn to him and want to be his friend.
16
Nick's a nice guy.
17
After the excitement of the war,
18
Nick found the Midwest terribly boring,
19
so in 1922 he moved to the East Coast.
20
Wall Street was pumping, and Nick wanted to be a part of it.
21
While he was there, Nick met several interesting characters.
22
But the one who made the biggest impression on him was Gatsby.
23
Ah, Gatsby.
24
What a gorgeous, sensitive soul.
25
Nick is now back at home in the Midwest for reasons he'll reveal later.
26
In the meantime, he's going to unburden his heavy heart by telling us the tale of the great Gatsby.
27
It begins in the summer of 1922.
28
Nick had just rented a house in West Egg on Long Island Sound,
29
about 20 miles from Manhattan.
30
It was a tiny shack compared to the monstrous mansions on either side.
31
See that gigantic French-inspired castle next door to Nick's?
32
That's Gatsby's mansion.
33
But if you think the West Egg mansions are big,
34
wait until you see the estates across the bay in East Egg.
35
East Egg is the more fashionable of the two egg-shaped landforms on Long Island Sound.
36
It's where the old money resides.
37
In fact, that's where Nick's taking us right now,
38
to the palatial home of his second cousin, Daisy Buchanan.
39
Nick went to Yale with Daisy's husband, Tom.
40
Now Tom is what you would call an alpha male, a 1920s chad.
41
He's also from an incredibly wealthy family,
42
and his sprawling estate in East Egg is impressive, to say the least.
43
Once inside, we meet Daisy and her friend, Jordan Baker.
44
Nick is happy to see Daisy,
45
although he barely knows her.
46
Jordan only faintly registers Nick's presence.
47
She's too cool for him.
48
Her face seems familiar, though,
49
and she even knows who Nick's neighbour is.
50
Who's Gatsby?
51
At dinner, Tom shows his racist side.
52
He mansplains some very unscientific opinions about non-white races, until the phone rings.
53
Tom leaves the room to answer it, and Daisy follows him.
54
Then Jordan and Nick hear them arguing.
55
It turns out Tom has a mistress.
56
Poor Daisy.
57
It's bad enough that Tom's affair is common knowledge,
58
but to call him at dinner time?
59
Well, this is awkward, especially when the phone rings a second time.
60
Later, when Nick and Daisy have a chance to speak alone,
61
she reveals how miserable she is.
62
She's rich, sophisticated and terribly alone.
63
Back inside the house, Nick realises that Jordan is a pro golfer who's graced the covers of several sports magazines.
64
What an odd evening Nick's had.
65
As he drives away, Nick can't help but feel sorry for Daisy and Tom.
66
When he arrives home, he sits in the moonlight, mulling it over.
67
Then he sees the mysterious silhouette of a man standing on the lawn of the neighbouring mansion.
68
It could only be Gatsby.
69
But then Nick sees him do a strange thing.
70
He stretches his arms out towards a green light far across the bay.
71
Was he just stretching?
72
Or was he reaching for something?
73
A short time later, Tom takes Nick on a train trip to New York.
74
On the way, they stop by the Valley of the Ashes,
75
a filthy industrial wasteland that lies between the eggs and New York City.
76
Tom basically forces Nick out of the train.
77
He wants Nick to meet his mistress.
78
Like Nick has nothing better to do.
79
Myrtle Wilson, the mistress, is married to George Wilson,
80
the owner of a garage.
81
George is a spiritless young man who has no idea about his wife's affair.
82
Tom shows up under the pretense of selling George a car.
83
A bit brazen, don't you think?
84
When Myrtle appears, she walks by George as if he were a ghost.
85
But the chemistry between her and Tom is obvious.
86
Poor George must have ashes for brains.
87
While George is out of the room,
88
Tom and Myrtle arrange a rendezvous at their apartment,
89
or love nest, in New York City.
90
How cosy.
91
Tom even buys her a puppy on the way.
92
Well, the rendezvous turns into a party.
93
Myrtle invites her sister Catherine,
94
as well as the McKees from the flat below.
95
Poor Nick, who'd tried to excuse himself earlier in the afternoon,
96
ends up getting wasted on Tom's whisky.
97
It was all fun, games and gossip until Myrtle taunted Tom by repeating Daisy's name.
98
Tom broke Myrtle's nose for that.
99
Party's over, folks.
100
But, as we all know,
101
that wasn't a real party.
102
Only Gatsby throws proper parties.
103
And soon enough, Nick is formally invited to one.
104
Now that's what you call a party.
105
Except Nick doesn't know anyone among the crowds of glittering socialites.
106
Isn't that the worst feeling?
107
Luckily, Jordan Baker rescues him from being a complete loner.
108
As Jordan and Nick make their way around the gardens,
109
they hear all sorts of juicy gossip about their host.
110
Apparently, Gatsby killed a man once.
111
Wasn't he a German spy during the war?
112
Is he related to German royalty?
113
Well, according to a friend of a friend,
114
Gatsby grew up in Germany.
115
But wasn't he in the American army too?
116
Where is Gatsby, anyhow?
117
Jordan and Nick look for him in his vast Gothic library.
118
They encounter a curious owl-eyed man, but no Gatsby.
119
At around midnight, when the party was really cranking,
120
a man recognises Nick from the war.
121
Then the man invites Nick for a spin in his hydroplane in the morning.
122
After a moment of confusion,
123
the man finally introduces himself as Gatsby.
124
Ah, Gatsby.
125
His beautiful, warm smile puts Nick totally at ease.
126
But Gatsby has to excuse himself.
127
Chicago is on the phone.
128
Gee, he does business at funny hours, doesn't he?
129
A short time later, Gatsby requests that Jordan Baker join him for a private chat.
130
Is Gatsby stealing Nick's date?
131
At around 2am, just as things were winding down and getting messy,
132
Jordan and Gatsby emerge from the library.
133
Jordan tells Nick that she's just heard the most amazing thing,
134
but he'll have to see her if he wants the scoop.
135
She tells him to look her up in the phone book.
136
No cell phones in those days.
137
When Nick bids Gatsby goodnight, they're interrupted again.
138
This time, Philadelphia is on the phone.
139
He must be super important.
140
Once Nick escapes the chaos of a last-minute bingle in Gatsby's driveway,
141
he looks back to see Gatsby waving a final farewell from his porch.
142
But Nick doesn't want you to think that the three nights he's just described are all that absorbed him that summer.
143
He also worked hard, fell in love with New York,
144
had a fling with a girl at work and started dating Jordan Baker.
145
It wasn't true love, more like tender curiosity.
146
Jordan was a liar and a bad driver but she charmed him.
147
Although it turns out that Nick wasn't entirely free to love Jordan,
148
or anyone else for that matter,
149
he still had a girl back home to whom he wrote letters signed, Love Nick.
150
Nick insists that he's an honest guy,
151
but his actions seem to say otherwise.
152
Can we trust our narrator?

शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?
शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
