Answer:
Answer of Question 1:
D. It acts as the falling action of the story by showing what happens to the person who wins the lottery.
Answer of Question 2:
C. Tessie’s obviously negative view of the lottery after she wins she conflicts with the readers’ previous view of the lottery as rather mundane to create suspense about why Tessie gets so upset.
Explanation:
Answer 1:
In “The Lottery” (1949) by Shirley Jackson, when Tessie Hutchinson comes in the center of a cleared space, the conflict is about to resolve. So it is falling action of the story.
Falling Action is defined as the part of a story right after the climax and before the very end. It resolves all the conflicts of the story and wraps up the narrative.
Falling action should not be confused with resolution or denouement of a story which is the end of the story. During falling action the conflict is being resolved, while at resolution the conflict has been resolved.
Answer 2:
The title of the story, the mention of square between bank and post office, the excitement among children, women and men of the village – all make readers view lottery as a sort of cash prize. The reader first has a slight conflict by reading about stones in the start of the story. But he/she (the reader) ignores it to give it any importance. The real conflict arises when Tessie protests at the result of the lottery when she wins it (or in fact loses it).

Answer:
In chapter 3, Doug is upset that Jane Eyre is the assigned reading for his English class. He insists that he will not read it. At this point, we can only surmise the reasons for Doug's dismissal of the book. In chapter 4, we discover (along with Mr. Ferris) that Doug cannot read. Privately, the educator consults with Miss Cowper, who sets out to acquaint Doug with the rudiments of phonics. This changes things for Doug, and he begins to gain an appreciation for reading. The description of Doug's struggles demonstrate the difficulties he has to overcome in his journey toward a greater sense of self.
In chapter 4, we also discover that Doug's terrible secret has been discovered. His peers now know that he has an embarrassing tattoo with the words "Mama's Baby" etched onto his chest. As Doug pours out his pain to Mr. Ferris, we come to understand how deeply our young protagonist has been scarred by his father's abusive actions. In order to heal from his past, Doug must learn new ways of relating to himself, his father, and others.
It is a difficult process, however. In chapter 5, Doug wrestles with his sense of shame and anger. He begins to indulge in self-destructive behavior, gets into fights in school, and stops going to the library. In other words, Doug finds himself on the losing side in the battle against his rage. Later, however, after Mr. Swieteck lies about having taken the hundred dollar prize and signed baseball from Mr. Ballard, Doug decides to challenge his father. He barely dodges his father's fists as he races out of the house.
This interaction between father and son demonstrates Doug's changing perspective and his growing appreciation for the power of truth. No matter the circumstance or challenge, the truth is irrevocable and unflinching. Mr. Swieteck may be bigger, but he cannot argue with the facts. The moment inspires Doug with the realization that his father's outlook on life is flawed and that he, Doug, has the power to choose his purpose and destiny. It is only after Doug rejects his father's distorted perspectives that he is able to begin his journey towards emotional healing.
