which fairy tale? Cinderella?
Explanation:
Answer:
A). It takes place annually, in late June.
Explanation:
The statement that is accurate regarding the short story 'The Lottery' authored by Shirley Jackson is that the rite known as 'lottery' took place annually in the town towards the end of June. In the story, the lottery event took place on the 27th of June(late June) when the townsfolk gathered together for accomplishing the tradition. Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer and the others are incorrect because the townspeople were excited about the tradition instead of putting an end to it. The children gathered stones before the event which signifies that they were extremely willing to participate and neither of the people was willing to change except Tessie Hutchinson who was eventually stoned to death as she questioned the tradition and used reason.
After reading "How Santa Claus Found the Poor-House," by Sophie Swett, we can say that the quotation that gives evidence to Part A is:
C. "He had become so accustomed to looking for a bright side that he could find one when you wouldn't have thought there was any there." ( Paragraph 28)
In Part A, we were asked about how Gobaly's attitude changed while he was shoveling snow.
The answer is that he was initially upset that it would not be a happy Christmas. However, his conversation with Methuselah reminds him to be positive.
Methuselah is weaker than Gobaly, so Gobaly feels very protective of him. They are both orphans who live at the Poor-House.
Whenever Gobaly is around Methuselah, he looks for the bright side of things so that his friend will be happy.
In their conversation about Christmas, Gobaly is trying to cheer Methuselah up. That is what makes his attitude change.
With the information above in mind, we can choose letter C as the best option.
