Answer:

One way the author uses irony to convey his message is By having the "winner" of the Lottery of Fairness and Benevolence punished, he shows that society is dysfunctional.

Explanation:

The complete idea of this excerpt about having a lottery with the topic of crime and punishment is a pure irony element, there are so many points of irony such as the name of the lottery "Lottery of Fairness and Benevolence" while perhaps a person who is not guilty will pay for what others have done, making the system completely dysfunctional. Then the fact that it does not matter how old the person to be punished will be, and the necessity of having soldiers around.

How does the complication affect the story? It resolves the story. It delivers exposition. It introduces a theme. It intensifies
Simora [160]

It intensifies the conflict.


A complication adds to the problem of the story. The stories problem is the conflict. Many times there is more than one complication. When labeling a plot line for a story, the complications can be found in the rising action. This takes place between the exposition and the climax. The exposition of a story introduces the characters, setting, and conflict. The climax is the pivotal point in the conflict. The character can never return to the way things were when the story started out. Something or someone has been irrevocably changed.

Determine whether the definition below is connotative or denotative.
motikmotik
The answer is connotative, so choice A.

The reason why is because the denotative definition is "a place where you live, reside" which is the literal definition of "home". This is the definition you'd find in the dictionary. Whereas the definition of "warmth, comfort and affection" is an emotional connection often placed on the word "home".
