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, <u>option A</u> 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.

Answer:
"Don't make me angry," Harry shouted, "or I'll really lose it!"
"You go look for Hagrid," said Hermoine.
Explanation:
In American English, these are the rules when it comes to the ways quotation marks and other punctuation marks are written:
- Commas and periods always go inside the quotation marks <em>("You go look for Hagrid</em><em>,</em><em>" said Hermoine.)</em>
- Dashes, colons, and semicolons almost always go outside the quotation marks.
- Question marks and exclamation marks sometimes go inside and sometimes stay outside.
When you're splitting a quotation in half, you should add a comma after the speaker to separate the speaker from the second part of the quote <em>("Don't make me angry</em><em>,</em><em>" Harry shouted</em><em>,</em><em> "or I'll really lose it!").</em>
