This thesis adopts the methods of comparison, contrast, and quotation to explore why Great Gatsby is great. This thesis analyzes the text from the three aspects:the greatness in Gatsby's economic success, the greatness in Gatsby's perseverance of love, the greatness of Gatsby's personality. In this way, the readers can understand the great Gatsby's greatness.展开更多

However, it has not been able to map that portion of the sky which is occluded by the dust gas and stars of our own Milkyway Galaxy. This research builds on work from a previous paper that sought to impute this missing galactic information using Inpainting, polar transforms and Linear Regression ANNs. In that paper, the author only attempted to impute the data in the Northern hemisphere using the ANN model, which subsequently confirmed the existence of the Great Attractor and the homogeneity of the Universe. In this paper, the author has imputed the Southern Hemisphere and discovered a region that is mostly devoid of stars. Since this area appears to be the counterpart to the Great Attractor, the author refers to it as the Great Repeller and postulates that it is an area of physical repulsion, inline with the work of GerdPommerenke and others. Finally, the paper investigates large scale structures in the imputed galaxies.展开更多
