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
