5 0

Answer:

It highlights the fact that no one speaks out against the lottery even though it is murder

Explanation:

Mr. Harry Graves from the short story "The Lottery" is a symbolic and important man because of his rile in the book as people who "win" the Lottery are sent to him.

The Lottery is about a town who has a tradition of drawing from a pool of names and whoever is selected, is "sacrificed" to ensure that the town prospers. No one knows why this tradition is in place, but they do it anyways, even though they feel its wrong.

The importance of Mr Graves keeping silent through out the novel is that no one speaks out about the lottery, even though it is murder.

love history [14]

Answer:

1) Growing up on the moon was amazing. Every night I watched the little marble of a planet rotate throughout the night sky. It was beautiful.

2) Good Morning, everybody! Today we're talking about space stations and the history of the space stations. Not a lot of people have been in space, but a long time ago on July 20th, 1969 men walked on the moon. Things have been a lot different these days, since we're getting ready to launch our mission to living on Mars in a few years! Things may be different, but their still amazing events!
