Answer:

It sets the stoning of Tessie in motion.

Explanation:

Shirley Jackson's short story "The Lottery" is set in a small village who have the annual tradition of conducting a lottery to chose one person from the people to be stoned to death. No one knows why it was done and the significance of it, but everyone still follows the old barbaric tradition nonetheless.

The given passage/ excerpt shows the moment Tessie selected the 'cursed paper' indicating her as the victim. She hadn't revealed the dotted paper that is the mark of the 'victim' but with everyone left out, she is the only probable person to have picked the paper. The dialogue of Mr. Summers asking Bill to show Tessie's paper is the start of the whole plot of the stoning. It sets the stoning action in motion, with the victim chosen, only the main act of the stoning was left.

Give aleast 6 events happen in the story of ANYTHING BUT TYPICAL by Nora raleigh baskin
Julli [10]

Answer:

1. Jason Blake is an autistic 12-year-old who lives in a neurotypical environment. Most days, it is only a matter of time before anything goes wrong.

2. When Jason starts sixth grade, for the first time, he attempts regular public school. Until now, he has had a one-on-one assistant since his diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder in third grade.

3. Jason finds a glimmer of comprehension as he comes across PhoenixBird, who posts stories on the same online forum as he does.

4. Jason can be himself, as he writes, and he thinks PhoneixBird, whose name is Rebecca, may be his first true friend. But as anxious as Jason is to meet her, he's afraid that only if they see me can Rebecca see his sincerity.

5. Every day, Jason deals with the school's overstimulating climate, working closely with physical and speech therapists who help him deal with his autism. He mentions having trouble reading the facial expressions of other people, recognizing faces, and maintaining his wrath.

6. Jason's parents are surprising him with a trip to an upcoming Storyboard conference in Texas.
