Answer:
The role of tradition of taking 'the Lottery' in the small town is significant as it tells that how much the townspeople value this tradition or ceremony.
The townspeople feel encouraged and enthusiastic towards this custom, unless it comes over them.
Explanation:
'The Lottery' can said to be a story with sinister climax, written by Shirley Jackson. The story is about an annual ceremony of drawing 'The Lottery' by the townspeople of an unnamed town.
'The Lottery' is a ceremony in which townspeople draws lottery and the one who gets a slip marked with black ink is stoned to death by townspeople. This sacrificial ceremony is perfomed to ensure good harvest, as stated by Old Man Warner <em>"Lottery in June, corn be heavy soon."</em>
<u>This sacrificial ceremony plays a significant role in lives of the townspeople as it is performed to ensure good harvest</u>. They valued this tradition over the lives of people. They considered it to be a good omen to sacrifice a life of human to assume good harvest.
The feelings of townspeople are not very definitely defined by the author in the story. <u>But setting of the story depicts that they were enthused and encouraged to gather yearly for this ceremony</u>. This is also revealed in the way how Mrs. Hutchinson approached the place of lottery. She was enthusiastic to see who the person will be for sacrifice until it was herself.
From this, we can presume that townspeople were enthused and encouraged with this sacrificial ceremony until and unless it comes to them. They find it good until it's them.
