What is a little bit ironic, or unexpected, about Tessie’s final scream, "It isn't fair, it isn't right….” (5); why do you think Tessie says these words at this specific moment in the story? The lottery

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

I think Tessie's cries at the end of the story also point to a fairly negative aspect of human nature. We often don't try to understand or empathize with another's plight until something similar happens to ourselves. When Tessie claims that what's happening to her isn't fair, that it isn't right, she is right. But, as another commenter has already pointed out, it seems incredibly likely that every other person who has ever been the "winner" of this terrible lottery has felt the same way and said the same things. And I doubt Tessie stepped in to stick up for them when they did

From the statement given, the comma after example and the comma after states are correct. The mistake in the statement written is that there is no comma after 20.

When writing the date using the month-day-year format, we should note that commas are placed after the day and also after the year.

The joking pig farmer is such a ham!
oxymoron
paradox
understatement
personification
pun

Answers

Answer:

The sentence is an example of: pun.

Explanation:

A pun is a word play or joke that uses either words that have multiple meanings or words that sound alike but present different meanings. In this case, the pun consists of the use of "ham". If a person is a ham, that person is exaggerated in their manners in order to draw people's attention to himself. In the sentence, the person who is a ham is a pig farmer, and that is why we have a pun. We would not expect the pig farmer to be the ham - the pigs should be the ham (literally). Thus, the sentence plays with the figurative and the literal meanings of "ham".

Read this excerpt from "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson.

Although the villagers had forgotten the ritual and lost the original black box, they still remembered to use stones. The pile of stones the boys had made earlier was ready; there were stones on the ground with the blowing scraps of paper that had come out of the box. Mrs. Delacroix selected a stone so large she had to pick it up with both hands and turned to Mrs. Dunbar. “Come on,” she said. “Hurry up.”

Mrs. Dunbar had small stones in both hands, and she said, gasping for breath, “I can’t run at all. You’ll have to go ahead and I’ll catch up with you.”

The children had stones already, and someone gave little Davy Hutchinson a few pebbles.

Tessie Hutchinson was in the center of a cleared space by now, and she held her hands out desperately as the villagers moved in on her. “It isn’t fair,” she said. A stone hit her on the side of the head.

Old Man Warner was saying, “Come on, come on, every-one.” Steve Adams was in the front of the crowd of villagers, with Mrs. Graves beside him.


By the end of Shirley Jackson's "The Lottery," how does the contrast between the characters’ view of the lottery and that of readers' impact the story?

A)Because the characters’ view the lottery as acceptable, while readers view it as horrific, it creates shock and suspense over Tessie's fate.

B)Because the characters view the lottery as an important annual ritual, while readers view it as outdated and dull, it gives the story a soothing tone.

C)Because the characters view the lottery as fun and enjoyable, while readers see it as disappointing, it adds humor to the story.

D)Because the characters view the lottery as dangerous, while readers see it as exciting, it fuels confusion and outrage over Tessie's behavior.

I don't want a whole essay just tell me what to do.

Answers

Answer:

Just read the book and find things that contrast or change within the book

Explanation:

Answer:

In the beginning of the short story “The Treasure of Lemon Brown,” Greg Ridley was just a normal boy who wasn’t performing well at school, and feared being lectured by his father.

Greg didn’t want to face another lecture from his father about his grades, so he instead took a stroll outside, away from his apartment. Along the way, he found an old abandoned tenement and met a homeless person in rags named Lemon Brown. After Greg and Lemon get acquainted, they get attacked by thugs who want to steal Lemon’s treasure. After this major event, Lemon tells Greg about the story of his treasure and his son. He talks about how he used to sing the blues to feed his family. Then one day his wife died and his son went to go live with his wife's sister. He then says that his son went to war and then died holding a mouth fiddle. The fact that it meant something to his son made it Lemon’s treasure.

The thugs and the story of Lemon Brown moved Greg Ridley and made him realize the importance of his father and the love of family. While Greg walked back home, the idea of getting lectured by his father made him smile now.
