Explanation: Mrs. Hutchinson arrived late for the lottery because she forgot what day it was. She's relaxed and even joking. She arrives late and even laughs about it. She's also still in her apron. "Clean forgot what day it was," she said to Mrs. Delacroix, who stood next to her, and they both laughed softly. "She is not uneasy or anxious." The mood of most of the crowd is positive. She tapped Mrs. Delacroix on the arm as a farewell and began to make her way through the crowd The people separated good-humoredly to let her through Mrs. Hutchinson reached her husband, and Mr. Summers, who had been waiting, said cheerfully. "Thought we were going to have to get on without you, Tessie."
<span>When Mrs. Hutchinson shows up late, she
arrives at the back of the crowd and stands next to Mrs. Delacroix. She tells her she forgot what day it was, and
they both softly laughed. When she
finally reaches the front of the crowd where her husband is, Mr. Summers
cheerfully says, “Thought we were going to have to get on without you, Tessie.” Thus, even though she was late, she was
greeted pleasantly and cheerfully. </span>
