Background (Jazz Age) (The importance of money)
- post World War I (1920s)
- jazz music and dance >> the era's moods and styles
- a period of wild economic prosperity,
- cultural flowering and a shaking up of social mores

F. Scott Fitzgerald coined the term "Jazz Age" to describe the decade of decadence and prosperity that America enjoyed in the
1920s, which was also known as the Roaring Twenties. After World War I ended in 1918, the United States and much of the rest of the
world experienced an enormous economic expansion. The surging economy turned the 1920s into a time of easy money, hard drinking
(despite the Prohibition amendment to the Constitution), and lavish parties. Though the 1920s were a time of great optimism, Fitzgerald
portrays the much bleaker side of the revelry by focusing on its indulgence, hypocrisy, shallow recklessness, and its perilouseven
fatalconsequences.

10 mins - hook :

Make students watch TGG trailers.

What does the trailer mainly show to us? Answer: wealthiness!

Now, have you ever thought how much money that you had spent in 1 month , 1 year, or in our whole life?

-- (ask)What is the purpose of that money that we spend? (For Ourselves or Others?)

Everyone use money as the symbol of perfection

-- everyone thinks of rich person as the perfect person

In nowaday life, we use money to give us good appearance, power, and happiness.

But, is that a true happiness?

(When you are rich, you might not get a sincerity. Everyone want just your money and your thing but not yourselves.)
