Analyze At the end of the story, Mrs. Delacroix selects a huge stone and urges Mrs. Dunbar to hurry. Explain why this is ironic
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

The act/ behavior of Mrs. Delacroix is ironic for she seemed to have more respect and interest in preserving the tradition than her friend's life.

This instance of irony shows that the villagers hold the power of tradition more important than the barbaric tradition of putting someone to death just for a "good harvest".

Explanation:

Shirley Jackson's short story "The Lottery" set in an unnamed village in an unspecified time/year tells of a village's annual ritual of stoning one person to death as a way of 'offering' for a goof harvest. This ritual is barbaric and the people in the village also knows it but they wouldn't change it anyway.

The present year's lot fell on the Hutchinsons, where another lot drew Tessie out as the year's 'winner'. Mrs. Delacroix seemed to be a close friend of Tessie, for we see them standing together and talking while the lottery was about to start. But once the "winner" had been chosen and Tessie "won", Mrs. Delacroix began to take the biggest stone, "<em>so large she had to pick it up with both hands</em>" and urged Mrs. Dunbar to hurry so that she can get back to her house chores. This is ironic, considering she seemed to be close to Tessie just few minutes back. But now, she doesn't seem to have any remorse or pity for her friend.

The ironic or unexpected behavior of Mrs. Delacroix in wanting to get the "ritual" over with, shows not only her but also the whole village's ingrained practice of the annual ritual. They seem to keep more importance on tradition, even if it seemed barbaric, than saving a friend's life. So accustomed are they to the long standing tradition of the "lottery" that they seemed to know nothing better but observe it and be done with.

REVISE THIS PARAGRAPH: Children all over the world are using technology now more than ever. This generation of kids is very diff
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Children all over the world are using technology now more than ever. This generation of kids is very different from any other generation. Unlike generations from before, this generation can watch tv all day long, have advanced game consoles, and have phones that can do anything. Technology will only continue to evolve and progress. Some people might use satires to express the use of phones of children in their daily lives. Satire is the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people. Satires can be used in plays, novels, and films too. In satire, artists use various techniques of irony, humor, exaggeration, and/or ridicule to convey their purpose.

Explanation:

There wasn't much to revise. Some capitalization errors, and that's it. Good job!
