    Answer: This is a symbolic moment, because Gatsby wants to turn back time.

    Explanation:

    The Great Gatsby tells a story of a man called Jay Gatsby and his unconditional love for his ex-girlfriend, Daisy.

    For Gatsby, the time that has passed from the moment Daisy and him separated does not mean anything. Gatsby is confident that they would be able to overcome any issues, and never loses hope that they will end up together. However, for Daisy, it does not work that way. She is married now and has a child, which makes everything all too complicated. Gatsby's knock over a clock symbolizes his refusal to accept that time has changed their relationship, and that it is unlikely that it will ever be the same.
