Answer and Explanation:

Taking the Lottery in the small town is remarkable, and it shows how much the townspeople value the ceremony. They feel motivated and inspired when it comes to customs and tradition.

''The Lottery'' has written by Shirley Jackson. This story has a climax. This story is about withdrawing the Lottery from townspeople by organizing an annual ceremony.

''The Lottery'' is a ceremony in which townspeople draw Lottery. Moreover, the one who gets a slip marked with black ink is declared to death by townspeople. This ceremony is being held to make sure good harvest and for the prosperity of the town.

This sacrificial ceremony plays an essential role in the townspeople's lives because it is performed to ensure a good harvest. Town's town's people value this tradition more than the lives of people. They considered this ceremony to be a good omen to sacrifice the life of a human.

The feelings of townspeople are not defined very distinctively by the author in the story. However, the way the author has set the story shows that they gathered every year for this ceremony.

So we can assume that the townspeople were satisfied and inspired by this sacrificial ceremony until it comes back to them.

Answer:

a. the wish that he will meet God when he dies (it is, indeed, the correct choice)

Explanation:

A <em>bourne</em> is a literary word for a limit or boundary.

A <em>pilot</em> is an archaic word for a guide or a leader. The first letter is capitalized, which means it is not an ordinary guide or leader, but <em>the Guide </em>or <em>the Leader</em>. It is a pretty obvious reference to God, who, as Christians believe, guides us all.

Basically, what he says in these final lines is "although he may be carried beyond the limits of time and space as we know them, he retains the hope that he will look upon the face of his “Pilot”(i.e. God) when he has crossed the sand bar."

If you reread the entire poem, you will see that it is about Lord Tennyson's accepting death as an inevitable and natural part of life. He asks his family not to grieve over him when he dies. Nothing is said about love in the poem.
