He was able to help the soldiers during World War II which means, chocolate goes to war.
He is not a baron robber, someone who gained great fortune by ruthless means, but instead a pioneer of his industry. He innovated the formulas for making caramel and chocolate, treated his employees with respect, and made generous, gracious donations to the people and places he cared about.

It was Christmas Eve. Hearing his clerk wish his nephew a merry Christmas Scrooge said “my clerk, with fifteen shillings a week, and a wife and family, talking about a merry Christmas”. Dickens is trying to express how Scrooge could not see what all the fuss was about; his clerk was paid very badly and even though he did not have much was willing to spend money on one day. Also how Cratchit was looking forward to spending time with his family.

They are considered rich, spoilt and lucky. Most of the Socs go to college and seem to have a perfect life but they too have problems. Bob got himself killed because he had no rules and his parents would let him get drunk and get into trouble. Cherry Valance, a Soc, and Ponyboy, a Greaser are also good examples of how stereotypes aren’t always true. Cherry teaches Ponyboy that Socs and Greasers aren’t that different like when she says “All Socs aren’t like that, Ponyboy”.
Nicholas was a wealthy Christian priest and later bishop, who traveled the country helping people, giving gifts of money and other presents. He did not like to be seen when he gave away presents, so the children of the day were told to go to sleep quickly or he would not come. Nothing has changed, and Santa Claus will not arrive this Christmas unless the children go to sleep early. The author points out that Clement C. Moore wasn't writing for publication, but to delight his own six children. He refused to have the poem published despite its enthusiastic reception by everyone who read it.
Gatsby sees it as his dream, away from his humble beginnings, towards a successful future with the girl of his desire.” Gatsby moved directly across from Daisy on purpose. The Green lights eternal burning represents Gatsby’s longing for being rich. To him, Daisy portrays the best treasure he could have ever obtain, and everything he became, he did for her.
