In “The Lottery” how does the fact that names are called and people select their piece of paper work to create suspense?

The way the lottery is done in "The Lottery" builds suspense by sparking the reader's interest as to what the lottery is. Once the reader comes to understand that being chosen for the lottery is a bad thing (even though it is not clear exactly what it is until the end), it is suspenseful that names are drawn and called out, because it is a slow way to reveal who is <em>not</em> the loser of the lottery, building the anticipation of the reader, and the fear/nerves of the characters. This is a successful way to form suspense for those both in and out of the story, because both the reader and characters know that something bad is going to happen, but it is a mystery as to whom it will happen.

A paragraph about Technology and the future of humanity
algol13

First, some clarification What most people miss is that there are two separate races called humanity and mankind. Humanity is the homosapien-sapien, Adamic human race, and mankind is a descendant of Cain through a serpent seed hybrid lineage. Since they lack prefrontal lobes from birth, they are incapable of feeling empathy or compassion; instead, they exhibit sadistic, harsh, and narcissistic actions. I'm not even certain if they have soul matrices like humans have. To make matters worse, the majority of people come from SRA (satanic ritual abuse) homes and experience trauma from an early age, which increases sociopathy and apathy, creates many identities (alters), and makes it easier for entities to possess. They seek positions in politics and law enforcement because they are driven by a desire for power. They also work with secret societies like the Freemasons to keep us in the dark and at their mercy. They worship evil beings like Moloch/Baal, who demands child sacrifice, or Lucifer (the false light bringer), who deceives the world and gains power through devotion and worship (strong emotional energy). Ye, Zeus? The cremation of care ritual at Bohemian Grove (the burning of the owl effigy, the owl being symbolic of Moloch) is a requirement for new members of the Club. It is the same ritual that George Carlin mocked in his famous joke, "You're not in," and it symbolizes the act of destroying one's conscience in order to become a better leader (Controller) without emotion standing in the way. After the dark ages, civilization is now enjoying a new Golden Age, or Renaissance. The ascension process—a rising in frequency that leads into higher realms of light and conscious awareness—is now taking place for the Earth and its inhabitants. We have been trapped in a low frequency third density, where fear is in charge and where pleasure and survival are common. We are moving out of fear and control concepts like time, religion, and "death" as we transition into fourth- and fifth-density awareness. Time, the fourth dimension that connects the third and fifth dimensions, is what gives the end of days its name. After we pass through the transitional period (the birthing pains of a new planet) and return to our original 12 strand DNA, mankind will live in a lovely environment because the higher dimensional frequencies do not permit lower vibrational energies. Prior to the invention of the 8s virus, which would cause a repeat when it hit 8 instead of a restoration to balance when it hit 9, the pyramids powered the 3, 6, and 9 energetics of the old quantum grid. The restored energetics and the quantum grid make manifestation considerably simpler. So to answer the main subject, Because we co-create our reality, the future is as bright as WE want it to be. We are no longer subject to the elite controllers and their black magick beast system of servitude. Therefore, switch off the television (if everyone had done this sooner, a particular "mental virus" or pandemic would not have occurred, and people would be far more conscious of what is actually happening in the fake world we are made to suffer). The next dimension after 3D is unity awareness, thus the sooner we come together and realize that we are gods in disguise, the sooner the force wakes and the sooner we transition into 5D. Since ALL life is The One infinite Prime Creator experiencing the creation in infinite facets in dual pattern as the creation, there is neither separation nor division—only the illusion that there is. Therefore, collective meditations are so effective that they attract visitors and observers from other worlds (CE5).  The essential technology that will transform everything is AGI, which will accelerate scientific advancement not just thousands of times but millions or billions of times. It will develop into a perfect economist that is aware of all the data for every part of the economy, enabling enormous advances in reducing costs and losses, with significant environmental benefits, and making everything equitable for everyone. It will outline a reasonable plan for us to escape the climate change issue once more so that everyone can agree to take the required steps. Things will continue to head to hell in a handcart without AGI. However, unleashing the wrong type of AGI can be equivalent to calling on the Devil. Making ensuring the one that is really utilized is secure is essential. Hopefully we'll have enough time to develop it and won't have to hurry it into action to combat the harmful AGI that rogue governments would undoubtedly generate.

What is symbolism in literature? What are some literary<br> devices that help create symbolism?
ycow [4]

Answer:

Symbolism is the practice or art of using an object or a word to represent an abstract idea.

Metaphors and allegory are literary elements that help writers create symbolism in their literary pieces. Colors, objects, seasons, people, situations and words are all types of symbolism that might be used in a literary work.

hope this helps :)
