用英文介绍《了不起的盖茨比》的内容概括
Nick came to New York from his Midwest homeland, next to his residence is the luxury house of Gatsby, the protagonist of the book.
A grand banquet is held every night. When Nick and Gatsby met, the story began.
Nick's interest in exploring Gatsby. The result of the inquiry is: Nick realized that Gatsby had a deep feeling in his heart.
Gatsby was not rich when he was young. He was a major officer. He fell in love with a girl named Daisy, and Daisy also had a feeling for him.
After the outbreak of World War I, Gatsby was transferred to Europe. As if by chance, but also by necessity, Daisy broke up with him and married Tom, a son of a wealthy family.
Daisy's life after marriage was not happy, because Tom had another mistress.
Materialistic satisfaction does not fill Daisy's spiritual emptiness. Gatsby was in great pain.
He firmly believed that money had betrayed Daisy's chastity of heart, so he was determined to become a rich man. A few years later, Gatsby finally succeeded.
He built a building opposite the daisy residence. Gatsby spent all his money in the night, trying to get Daisy's attention to save her lost love.
Moved by Gatsby's infatuation, Nick visited Daisy, his long-unconnected cousin, and conveyed Gatsby's thoughts to her.
Daisy always made fun of her meeting with Gatsby. Gatsby was dazed and listened to her at random, and naively assumed that the ending was not the end.
However, the real tragedy is quietly starting at this time.
Daisy was no longer the old lady daisy. Daisy, however, regarded her ambiguous relationship as a stimulus.
Nick finally realized that it was too late. Once Daisy was driving in a state of distraction, she ran over her husband's mistress.
Gatsby took responsibility for protecting Daisy, but Daisy had made up his mind to abandon Gatsby.
Under the provocation of Tom, the husband of his mistress shot Gatsby. Gatsby finally became a victim.
Gatsby did not find the smile on the face of Daisy's face until she died. Gatsby's tragedy is that he devotes everything to his beautiful dream, while Daisy, as the embodiment of his ideal, has only a beautiful body.
Despite Daisy's long-standing love affair, although he clearly heard that "her voice is full of money", he remained unchanged and stubbornly pursued the revival of her old dream.
Daisy and her husband were on the way to Europe when they were holding a funeral for Gatsby. Finally, there is no end.
Nick witnessed the unreasonable feelings of human reality and was deeply disgusted, so with a tragic mood, he left the noisy, indifferent, empty and false metropolis and returned to his homeland in dismay.

尼克从中西部故乡来到纽约，在他住所旁边正是本书主人公盖茨比的豪华宅第。这里每晚都在举行盛大的宴会。尼克和盖茨比相识，故事就这样开始了。
尼克对盖茨比充满探究的兴趣。探究的结果是：尼克了解到盖茨比内心深处有一段不了之情。年轻时的盖茨比并不富有，他是一个少校军官。他爱上了一位叫黛茜的姑娘，黛茜对他也情有所钟。后来第一次世界大战爆发，盖茨比被调往欧洲。
似是偶然却也是必然，黛茜因此和他分手，转而与一个出身于富豪家庭的纨绔子弟汤姆结了婚。黛茜婚后的生活并不幸福，因为汤姆另有情妇。物欲的满足并不能填补黛茜精神上的空虚。盖茨比痛苦万分，他坚信是金钱让黛茜背叛了心灵的贞洁，于是立志要成为富翁。
几年以后，盖茨比终于成功了。他在黛茜府邸的对面建造起了一幢大厦。盖茨比挥金如土，彻夜笙箫，一心想引起黛茜的注意，以挽回失去的爱情。尼克为盖茨比的痴情所感动，便去拜访久不联系的远房表妹黛茜，并向她转达盖茨比的心意。
黛茜在与盖茨比相会中时时有意挑逗。盖茨比昏昏然听她随意摆布，并且天真地以为那段不了情有了如愿的结局。然而真正的悲剧却在此时悄悄启幕。黛茜早已不是旧日的黛茜。黛茜不过将她俩的暖昧关系，当做一种刺激。
尼克终于有所察觉，但为时已晚。一次黛茜在心绪烦乱的状态下开车，偏偏轧死了丈夫的情妇。盖茨比为保护黛茜，承担了开车责任，但黛茜已打定主意抛弃盖茨比。在汤姆的挑拨下，致使其情妇的丈夫开枪打死了盖茨比。盖茨比最终彻底成为了牺牲品。
盖茨比至死都没有发现黛茜脸上嘲弄的微笑。盖茨比的悲剧在于他把一切都献给了自己编织的美丽梦想，而黛茜作为他理想的化身，却只徒有美丽的躯壳。尽管黛茜早已移情别恋,尽管他清楚地听出“她的声音充满了金钱”,却仍不改初衷,固执地追求重温旧梦。
人们在为盖茨比举行葬礼，黛茜和她丈夫此时却早已在欧洲旅行的路上。不了情终于有了了结。尼克目睹了人类现实的虚情寡义，深感厌恶，于是怀着一种悲剧的心情，远离喧嚣、冷漠、空洞、虚假的大都市，黯然回到故乡。

《了不起的盖茨比》作品主题：
“美国梦”从一开始落地生根，一直是美利坚民族的理想与追求，它本该具有强大的生命力，却何以会走向了幻灭，盖茨比的故事告诉读者，如果一种梦想，有的只是对物质的追求以及对成为“大人物”的渴望。
却缺乏对为什么要拥有财富和拥有了财富后究竟应该怎样生存这样一些具有人类终极意义的问题的思考，这样的梦想终究是海市蜃楼，也必定是短视和没有延续力的梦想。
当金钱代表一切的时候，美国梦中原来包含的理想成分早已经不在。物质的美国梦虽然并不尽然是一个全部表达了美国精神的梦想，但美国梦的物质的一面给予人们这样的思考：在美国梦的物质梦想实现以后，究竟应该如想的精神梦想，其内涵究竟应该包含一些什么样的原则。
