Answer:

In this story, winning the lottery means that you are stoned to death, not the recipient of a great prize. Secondly, the description in the first paragraph of the story is also ironic. Jackson describes the day as "clear" and "sunny," for instance, and notes that the flowers are "blossoming."

One example of irony is that Tess is chosen to be the one for the lottery yet in the beginning she is portrayed to be a carefree woman that cares for her family and a person the town likes. Also old Man Warner makes fun of towns that are wanting to get rid of The Lottery and he thinks that means they will go back to primitive times. Though it is the opposite because that town is moving forward by abandoning dated traditions to match moral standards.

SOMEONE PLEASE HELP! If you give a good answer I will mark BRAINLIEST!

Answer:

1.) Because matter is made up of molecules, the behavior of matter is dictated by the behaviors of the molecules. If the molecules were different, matter would be different.  

Example: water expands when it freezes

2.) Engage the audience — get them interested, give them a reason to listen. How?

Describe a scene or a character.

Tell a story.

Share a personal experience.

Relate to a recent event.

Piggyback on a previous speaker's remark or theme.

Point out something important about the audience or the current setting.

Explanation: I hope this helps :)
