Perry's IQ is only 76, but he's not stupid. His grandmother taught him everything he needs to know to survive: She taught him to write things down so he won't forget them. She taught him to play the lottery every week. And, most important, she taught him whom to trust. When Gram dies, Perry is left orphaned and bereft at the age of thirty-one. Then his weekly Washington State Lottery ticket wins him 12 million dollars, and he finds he has more family than he knows what to do with. Peopled with characters both wicked and heroic who leap off the pages, Lottery is a deeply satisfying, gorgeously rendered novel about trust, loyalty, and what distinguishes us as capable.<span> </span>
It depends on what type of essay you are writing . If it’s argumentative it also depends on if you are writing it for the intro. The intro goes:
Hook- catch attention
Thesis- restate argument
Claim- what you think
Please add the excerpts, then maybe someone could help.
The answers provided to you should be:
A) “‘There are eighty of you in the car,’ the German officer added. ‘If anyone goes missing, you will all be shot, like dogs.’”
B) “On the first day of the journey, she had already begun to moan. She kept asking why she had been separated from her family.”
C) “When they came back, they told us that they had learned, in exchange for a gold watch, that this was the final destination.”
D) “But there was nothing outside but darkness. We returned to our places, shame in our souls but fear gnawing at us nevertheless.”
