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.
C is correct in this situation.
The Water is Wide is the true story of a young white schoolteacher -- a man who gave a year of his life to give an island and a people renewed hope. He becomes the teacher to their children, and teaches the adults of Yamacraw Island extraordinary lessons they didn't even know they needed to learn.
One focal fundamental idea in "Let Sleeping Dogs Lie" is to attack the Vietnam War and the deaths it bought about. Goines uses emotional mockery and irony to criticize the US Government by laughing at its drafting system. He depicts it as a fake . In "Attack the Water" we learn of the hardships Vietnamese people had to undergo and of Japanese-American people during the era of Japanese labor camps. Both Goines and Mirikitani condemn war and want the reader to think more critically. While Goines makes fun of human behavior to find some social change Janice Mirikitani depicts its harsh consequences.
