The very cruel event named the lottery took place in a small American town. In this town there was a simple yet horrendous way to decide just exactly how to keep peace. Every year after a three step process someone was chosen to be brutally stoned to death by the people in the village. Tessie was the one who happened to be chosen and she did not want to die. Tessie is the character vs. society in this passage. Making the conflict the main part of the story her getting stoned against her will. The process was initially screwed up because Bill only had one household n the family, going straight towards the randomized draw in the black box. These changes point to the idea that the lottery is a long-standing tradition in the village, something they have been doing for years and years. Traditions that have been done for so long are unlikely to change.

What kind of conflict drives the plot in the story, "The Fisherman and his Wife"?
lord [1]

The answer would be Person Vs Person because the fishermans wife just wanted more and more from him not thinking about him at all just herself...and there was no other charater in the story but the fish, but the fish was giving the man gifts so he wouldn't be the problem so the wife was the conflict in the story that's why it would be Husband Vs Wife.

I hoped this helped!

Have a great day/night! :)

Why should women not join selective services? 99 Points I give BRAINLIEST!
levacccp [35]

1. This will create a weaker military where both servicemen and servicewoman pay the price in precious blood, because women are different then men physically.

- Combat roles are already open to women, if women registered for Selective Service and a draft was in fact implemented, the number of females on the military front lines could skyrocket. This would weaken our forces and unnecessarily cost both male and female blood. Obviously men are more equipped physically than women on the battle field.

2. All positions of the military are currently open to women,

- If a women would like to serve her country in any role at all, and is capable, she can. With no restrictions on  access, mandating women to register for Selective Service would only force unwilling participants in the name of "equality."

3. Daughters, sisters and wives serving will be targeted.

-Taking a look on how women are treated would make this clear. Because, imagining what would be done to a woman who is captured is completely terrifying. To give and example look at group such as ISIS, who have cut off the heads of Christian children and captured Nigerian school girls. Women will be targeted and men will risk their lives at all costs to save women because this is America.

4. Standards will be lowered.

-Women are generally weaker than men. When huge number of women are in the military you can guess that physical standards will be lowered in the name of group justice. The same "social justice warriors" who are pushing to register for Selective Service will be there counting every promotion and measuring enrollment of women in all positions, and there counting every promotion and measuring enrollment of women in all positions, and when the same number of women aren't promoted as men in combat, the "warriors" will "fix" by implementing quotas and lowering standards.

5. A majority of women oppose a mandate for women to register for Selective Service.

- According to a Rasmussen survey, only 38% of women agreed that women should register for selective service. Two reasons: One, the report surveyed women of all ages and not women who would potentially be mandated to serve if said draft were to be implemented, Two, the survey was taken earlier this month, a time when the draft was still dormant.

6. It's morally reprehensible.

- To sum it up in one line from a man who served this country: "The moral point that a country which sends its wives, mothers, sisters, and daughters into the meat grinder of combat has preemptively surrendered a vital portion of its own humanity."
