After reading the stories "The Lottery" and "All Summer in a Day," we can compare and contrast the characters' reactions to Tessie and Margot as follows:

  • Differences: In "The Lottery," at least at the beginning, the characters treat Tessie well and find her quirks humorous. In "All Summer in a Day," the characters do not treat Margot well at all and do not find her quirks to be humorous. They simply hate that she is different.
  • Similarities: In both stories, at a certain point, the other characters become extremely hostile toward Tessie and Margot. In the first case, the characters lose their temper as Tessie begins to question the lottery results. In the second case, the children lock Margot up as she begins to talk about the sun.

<h3>Who are Tessie and Margot?</h3>

Tessie is a character in the short story "The Lottery," by Shirley Jackson. As the lottery winner, Tessie's prize is to be stoned to death in a sacrificial ritual by the other villagers. Margot is a character in "All Summer in a Day," by Ray Bradbury. She is nine years old and lives in Venus. She is the only child in her group that remembers what the sun looks and feels like. She is more frail and quiet than the others.

In both stories, the characters of Margot and Tessie are found to be different than the others. However, while Margot is always treated with hostility, Tessie is treated with good humor and acceptance at first.

However, at a certain point, both characters are attacked by the others. Margot is screamed at and locked in a closet. Tessie is also screamed at once she begins to question the lottery. In the end, she is killed.

With the information above in mind, we can conclude that the explanation and answer provided are correct.

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

I went to the movie theater to see the sequel of one of my favorite ongoing sagas. In it ,was a robust, radiant, young man (or woman...ur choice) who would pick a random person and would try to snare him in his/her little sham by rupturing a coke bottle on the floor and simultaneously rant about how it was that persons fault and that he shouldn't shirk his responsibility and buy him another one..even bigger. I don't really know why its my favorite movie because if I was there, I would not recede from doing the right thing and I would reprimand him and resume with a quick retort.

lol....that was not easy.....kinda stupid...but I got all ur words in there

Hello there☺️,

According to your question:-

"Do you see nothing watching you under the water?"

"Whose dream is this, I would like to know:"

2) Then summarize Atwood's attitude in a sentence.

Ans:- The attitude of Atwood is quite strange. He is a curious person, and after his curiosity is over, he is questioning whether why it happened or how. In short, he is a peculiar person.
