  In his desk
Correct Answer
A. In a book called Hopalong Cassidy

Explanation
Nick and Gatsby's father find Gatsby's schedule in a book called Hopalong Cassidy. This suggests that Gatsby keeps his schedule hidden in a book, possibly to keep it secret or to camouflage it among his other belongings. The choice of book, Hopalong Cassidy, may also be significant, as it could symbolize Gatsby's desire to escape his past and create a new identity, much like the character in the book.

All of Gatsby's friends came to his funeral.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
The statement "All of Gatsby's friends came to his funeral" is false. In F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel "The Great Gatsby," Gatsby's funeral is sparsely attended, with only a few people present. This highlights the theme of the emptiness of wealth and the superficiality of Gatsby's relationships. The lack of attendance at his funeral symbolizes the lack of genuine connections and true friendships in Gatsby's life.
