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.

Which sentence reveals the author’s point of view in the passage? Learning to ski when you're an adult can be difficult. And if
viktelen [127]

Answer: The second sentence, "And if you are the kind of person who is easily embarrassed, then skiing may not be the sport for you," reveals that the authors points of view is 2nd person.

Explanation:

2nd person point of view uses the pronouns you/your/yours. The first sentence does not reveal the POV because the author could potentially be speaking in first person and talking directly to the audience. However, the second sentence makes it clear that 'you' are the main character in the passage.

Write 2 sentences of your own illustrating the first two subject-verb agreement rules?
Rama09 [41]
Rule 1. A subject will come before a phrase beginning with of. This is a key rule for understanding subjects. The word of is the culprit in many, perhaps most, subject-verb mistakes. A bouquet of yellow roses lends color and fragrance to the room. Rule 2. Two singular subjects connected by or, either/or, or neither/nor require a singular verb. My aunt or my uncle is arriving by train today.
