Question

which excerpt from the great gatsby best indicates that nick is not fully content with his life? he didnt say any more, but weve always been unusually communicative in a reserved way, and i understood that he meant a great deal more than that. father agreed to finance me for a year, and after various delays i came east, permanently, i thought, in the spring of twenty - two. instead of being the warm center of the world, the middle west now seemed like the ragged edge of the universe—so i decided to go east and learn the bond business. i had a dog—at least i had him for a few days until he ran away—and an old dodge and a finnish woman, who made my bed and cooked breakfast and muttered finnish wisdom to herself over the electric stove.

Explanation:

The excerpt where Nick decides to go East to learn the bond - business instead of staying in the Middle West, which seems like the 'ragged edge of the universe', implies his dissatisfaction with his current life situation and a longing for something more. His decision to leave and pursue a new path indicates he is not content with his life in the Middle West.

Answer:

The excerpt "Instead of being the warm center of the world, the Middle West now seemed like the ragged edge of the universe, so I decided to go East and learn the bond business." best indicates that Nick is not fully content with his life.
