Read the following description of East Egg and West Egg from The Great Gatsby:

They are not perfect ovals-like the egg in the Columbus story, they are both crushed flat at the contact end-but their physical resemblance must be a source of perpetual confusion to the gulls that fly overhead. To the wingless a more arresting phenomenon is their dissimilarity in every particular except shape and size. Which statement best explains how symbolism is used in setting the novel in East Egg and West Egg?

A. To signify thinly disguised descriptions of Long Island, New York

B. To demonstrate how difficult it is for people to choose which area make their homes in

C. To show that the differences between the two areas of land is invisible from a distance

D. To represent an unnatural place that confuses people and wildlife
