Answer:

A). It takes place annually, in late June.

Explanation:

The statement that is accurate regarding the short story 'The Lottery' authored by Shirley Jackson is that the rite known as 'lottery' took place annually in the town towards the end of June. In the story, the lottery event took place on the 27th of June(late June) when the townsfolk gathered together for accomplishing the tradition. Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer and the others are incorrect because the townspeople were excited about the tradition instead of putting an end to it. The children gathered stones before the event which signifies that they were extremely willing to participate and neither of the people was willing to change except Tessie Hutchinson who was eventually stoned to death as she questioned the tradition and used reason.

Chocolate is sweetened.<br> It tastes bitter.<br> before joining word
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

Before chocolate is sweetened, it tastes bitter.

Explanation:

A sentence has two parts: subject and predicate. Subject focuses on the person who is doing the action and predicate talks about the action, When we join two sentences, we use conjunctions.

Conjunctions like before, after, if, because, or , but, nor and so on. In this sentence, if we want to join and sentence and make it meaningful, we would place 'before' prior to 'chocolate'. Then we would put a comma after sweetened to punctuate it properly. This would make the sentence meaningful that before the process of sweetening the chocolate, the taste of chocolate is bitter. Thus, sentence would be:

Before chocolate is sweetened, it tastes bitter.
