Answer:

C). The Villagers made adjustments to the lottery as the population grew.

Explanation:

In the short story titled 'The Lottery' penned by Shirley Jackson, paragraphs 6 and 7 offer the details which suggest that 'the villagers made adjustments to the lottery as the population grew.' This deduction is substantiated through the descriptions like 'so much of the ritual had been forgotten or discarded ... paper slips substituted the wooden chips as the population had grown and the chips need to fit in the black box.' The <u>lapsing of rituals like 'swearing-in ceremony, a recital by the lottery official, a ritual salute, etc. further substantiate that the adjustments</u> in the lottery have been made with the growth of the population. Thus, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer

What is one of the best ways to improve sentence flow in an essay?
VladimirAG [237]
The answer is:  [A]:
_________________________________________________
 "<span>combine related sentences with transitional words" .
_________________________________________________
Note:
_____________________________________________________
Choice [B]:  "</span><span>begin all sentences in the same way" ; is incorrect.  To the contrary, beginning all sentence in the same way is NOT recommended and would worsen sentence flow in an essay.  It is recommended that one NOT begin ALL sentences in the same way but rather to vary sentences and use supporting detail.
____________________________________________________
Choice [C]:  "make sentences a similar length" ; is incorrect.  To the contrary, sentence VARIETY is encouraged. 
____________________________________________________
Choice [D]:  "write only complex sentences" ; is incorrect.  As mentioned directly above, sentence VARIETY is encouraged.  Furthermore, writing only complex sentences would like confuse or distract the reader and make it difficult to comprehend what is written.
_____________________________________________________
Choice [A]:  "combine related sentences with transitional words" ; is a great way to improve sentence flow in an essay (if done correctly); and keeps the reader engaged — and helps organize the essay, as well.
_____________________________________________________
Thus, "Answer choice: [A]:  "combine related sentences with transitional words" ; is clearly the best answer — and the correct answer!

Serjik [45]
In William Shakespeare's "Sonnet 18," the line best paraphrases to but your youth will never fade.

In "Sonnet 18" Shakespeare tries to compare a fair maiden to a summer's day, but he expresses that there is nothing that compares to her because her perpetual beauty and youth are far greater than such a temporary, inconsistent season.
So, when Shakespeare writes <span>"<span>But thy eternal summer shall not fade,</span>" he is saying that her timeless youth will never fade, unlike the briefness of a summer's day.</span>
