In the Lottery the story is about a town that joins together every year for the Lottery the reason they do the Lottery is for the harvest but that way the original purpose but now they just do it because of tradition. The characters are Mr summers Tessie and her family. Hope this helps :)

It is about how someone (Tessie) is chosen as a scapegoat by society and blamed for its evils.
The main characters in the story: Tessie, Bill (her husband), Mr. Summers and Mr. Graves.

Answer:

Here is the poem I wrote for it, I hope it works! :)

I sit on the pier

the waves crash near

I watch an overhead seagull.

Soaring the skies

Master of flight

free to go anywhere.

The bird swoops down under the pier

waves even closer.

It's child yawns and stretches it's wings then topples to the sea.

A gasp of all living things

but the animal succeeds

it's tiny wings it propel itself up

The waves ignore the kid

She squawks with joy, proud of what she'd done

an apprentice of flight

sometimes right

still getting better

perhaps if I was a bird, this clumsy chick is what I would be.

More: This is my example you can use it but if u want to make one on your own be sure to pick an animal beforehand and write about that animal at the end say it is you-like I did

How might a mostly text account of a news story differ from a mostly visual account of the same event?
kobusy [5.1K]
A text account I guess some might say would not be as reliable but with a visual account you have proof that it happened. Hope this helps

What is the object of the preposition in the following sentence?
vovangra [49]
The preposition in question is "on", and its purpose is to show you where the dog chewed. You can remove the preposition to form the sentence "The brown dog chewed the rawhide bone." You can also rearrange it to find the preposition, "on the rawhide bone, the dog chewed" in what is commonly known as the Yoda technique.

Writing a paper for English and I need new perspectives. What have you learned from this experience being in quarantine? How did
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

I've learned that as much as I dislike people, being alone for weeks on end is not happy fun times. However, it lets me get to know myself, and learn new skills. I've learned how to apply for freelance work and I've learned how to embroider. I mostly look for new things to do and try as much as I can while I have time
