When I was about eight years old, I thought it would be fun to learn to play the piano. My parents agreed to purchase a piano.

The told me that i would be required to practice one hour a day because piano lessons were expensive. At first, I pracitced piano for two hours a day, therefore I progressed very rapidly.

Every day for two years I raced home after school and practiced the piano with great enthusiasm.

Then one day, something happened. I decided I liked baseball better than the piano. Though I can still play the piano rather well, I do not practice as long nor as diligently as I once did.

Answer:

A). It takes place annually, in late June.

Explanation:

The statement that is accurate regarding the short story 'The Lottery' authored by Shirley Jackson is that the rite known as 'lottery' took place annually in the town towards the end of June. In the story, the lottery event took place on the 27th of June(late June) when the townsfolk gathered together for accomplishing the tradition. Thus, option A is the correct answer and the others are incorrect because the townspeople were excited about the tradition instead of putting an end to it. The children gathered stones before the event which signifies that they were extremely willing to participate and neither of the people was willing to change except Tessie Hutchinson who was eventually stoned to death as she questioned the tradition and used reason.
