摘要

盖茨比的梦想是通过努力变得富裕，并且要进入上流社会，最终想要赢得黛西的爱。

他努力使自己变得优雅与一些有名的人交朋友。

他买了一间豪宅和豪华轿车。

当他变得有钱的时候，他过着奢侈的生活，他每周都要举办一个宴会。

文章首先介绍美国梦的定义，作者简介和整个故事的简介。

接着介绍了美国梦，盖茨比和其他一些人梦想的破灭。

通过介绍梦想破灭的过程，论文进一步分析了盖茨比梦想破灭的原因，主要是从内因和外因两方面来分析的。

内因主要包括盖茨比的性格特点、获得财富和运用财富方法的错误和他的梦想的不现实性等。

外因主要包括社会环境的影响和其他人的影响。

通过对原因的详细分析，可以得出盖茨比梦想破灭是必然的。

尽管盖茨比努力去实现他的梦想，但是有许多的困难让他的梦想不能实现。
