Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
What is the author's purpose for using a black spot on the paper?
Read the passage from "The Lottery."
Bill Hutchinson went over to his wife and forced the slip of paper out of her hand. It had a black spot on it, the black spot Mr. Summers had made the night before with the heavy pencil in the coal-company office. Bill Hutchinson held it up, and there was a stir in the crowd.
O to represent the darkness of death
to maintain the tradition of the lottery
O to enhance the mystery of the lottery
O to represent the horror of disobedience
Answer:
O to enhance the mystery of the lottery
Explanation:
The author presents the black spot on the paper as a way to convey a mysterious sensation to the reader. This is because the reader does not understand what this black spot represents, but understands that it is not a good and fun thing. In this way the reader begins to doubt the nature of the lottery and what it refers to. In this case, the author manages to show through the black spot on the paper, the mystery that the lottery carries, thus imposing a suspense in the plot.

One of the most significant challenge that I have faced is as follow:
- It was the days of my fellowship at Amal Academy. We have to complete our assignments and project every week. The problem was that I was doing this fellowship along with my job. I haven't the computer with me at that time as I was away from home.
- I have to live in an apartment at my work place so instead of losing hope, I asked my cousin for help and in return I offered him my services as tutor.
- So, after the work, I used the local transport to go for my aunt's home. I used to do all my work at the computer by completing the online video content and answering the reflection questions. After that, I used to taught my cousin Mathematics as per deal.
- With hard work, I won the weekly project prize in the second week of the fellowship and my fellows started to praise my hard work as I was the one who used to start the week's assignment first.
- Besides, I always help my fellows and that's why I have build very valuable friends at that place.
- With the passion, courage and determination, I was able not to complete my fellowship but I also completed it with honors. Moreover, my cousin also completed his matriculation exams with good marks.
