Explain the feelings of most people in town towers the lottery in “The Lottery”

English
1 answer:
Mama L [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: People are afraid to end the lottery and don't fight it.

Explanation:

The lottery is a ritual that happens every year. We are not told for how long exactly the lottery has existed, but Old Man Warner claims that this is his 77th time to attend the lottery.

Although they are afraid, people are hesitant to end the lottery because they do not know what will ensue if they do so. One interpretation is that they believe that ending the lottery will result in poor crop growth during the season. Whatever the reason might be, the villagers do not even consider ending the lottery, but protest when someone of them is chosen as a winner (Tessie protests when her husband is chosen). The absurdity of the lottery is demonstrated in people's determination to have the lottery at all costs.

I need help, can someone please help me! I need to write a two stanzas poem with the ryhme scheme as ABCBBB (16 15 16 15 7). the
mr Goodwill [35]

          Key thing to think about:

- the rhyme scheme as ABCBBB means that "B" lines will all rhyme with the last word

- I think "16 15 16 15 7" is talking about syllable count, so we need to make sure our first line has 16 syllables, etc

     I am afraid of the water, as it can be scary down deep

     With the unknown terrors lurking beneath the murky, dark blue

     The things we do not know under the surface cause me great dread

     For unless I find out, these unknown frights will be ringing true

     Because I cannot see through

     These great fears of the depths are mighty, and will never go askew

     Thinking about the extensive sea can make me queasy

     The thoughts swirling of it swallowing you up with jaws of darkness

     Your lungs fill quickly with water, unable to breath easy

     Leaves me hugely uneasy

                 (I am not actually afraid of water lol, but there are a lot of words you can use haha! I hope this will work for your assignment!)

Have a nice day!

    I hope this is what you are looking for, but if not - comment! I will edit and update my answer accordingly. (ノ^∇^)

What does the ending of the story named a letter to god tell about Lincho​
SIZIF [17.4K]

This question seems to be incomplete. However, there is enough information to find the right answer.

Answer:

In the end, Lencho​ seems to be ungrateful and even accuses the people from the post office of having stolen his money, because he´s unaware that it was them, and not God, who gave him money.

Explanation:

In the story "A Letter to God," by G.L. Fuentes, Lencho is a farmer whose entire crop yield has been damaged by a hailstorm and decides to write a letter to God asking for 100 pesos to sow his field again. When the postmaster discovers Lencho´s letter, secretly collects some money for him, but is not the full amount Lencho had asked for. In the end, Lencho writes another letter for God, asking for the full amount, and accusing the people from the post office of having stolen part of his money, showing that he´s ungrateful and unaware of who are the people actually trying to help him.
