Answer:

Characters:

Tessie Hutchinson - Loser of the Lottery

Old Man Warner -Oldest man in the village

Mr. Summers - Lottery conductor

Bill Hutchinson - Tessie Hutchinson's husband

Mr. Harry Graves - Postmaster

Motivation:

Family and Rules. Although family relationships determine almost everything about the lottery, they do not guarantee loyalty or love after the lottery is over. The lottery is filled with rules that can be randomly followed or disregarded.

Action:

There was a lottery in a small village on June 27. The lottery lasted for 2 hours due to the population of the village compared to other villages where it takes longer.

The rules of the lottery is that Mr. Summers will read names, and the family heads come up and draw a slip of paper. No one should look at the paper until everyone has drawn.

Tessie Hutchinson and her family joins the crowd.

Tessie was eventually stoned by the villagers for losing the game.

This is more like the compass for finding your way out of a geometry book. A mathematical compass (like this one) is used to draw perfect circles. For Donne, it was the perfect metaphor for the long-distance relationship he imagined with his wife. Line 26: The compass is introduced emphasizing two crucial features.

Read this excerpt from "Mad Cow, Furious Farmer."
pshichka [43]

I believe the correct answer is: D. The author humanizes the prion with playful language by saying "[i]f it manages to burrow into a corner."

 

In this excerpt from "Mad Cow, Furious Farmer”, the example in which the author keepings a lively tone even while discussing a disease is:

"[i]f it manages to burrow into a corner."

 

As opposed to the terminology author uses (such as: bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE)), the informal language of more commonly understandable comparison gives the lively tone to this excerpt, even though he is addressing the serious disease. Other example of this would be: "a little bit squishy and maybe a little bit sticky".
