“The lottery” "There was a great deal of fussing to be done..." Why would this statement

English
1 answer:
hoa [83]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The correct answer is B)

Explanation:  

In the 7th paragraph, the writer makes the statement "There was a great deal of fussing to be done before Mr. Summers declared the lottery open."

Fussing here is ironic because in the second sentence of that paragraph, they were going to make up lists of people family heads, and family members, who were supposed to partake in the lottery.

Going by the rules of a lottery, names ought not to be made up. But to be collated as -s from the list of those who ought to partake in it. Going the normal route would have been the actually fussing. But they decided to take a shortcut.

Cheers

Arrange David's goals in the order that he achieved them to become an English teacher in Spain. David was selected for a teachin
Nostrana [21]

Based on the phrases, this is the correct order of how David was able to teach English in Spain.

.


A. David took some elective courses in creative writing and linguistics while he was in high school

<span>B. David put in four hours of study each day to earn straight As throughout high school.  </span>

C. David received his Bachelor of Arts degree in education with a minor in Spanish. 

<span> D. </span><span>David completed his Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) Master's program</span>

<span>E .David applied for a teaching program that allowed him to teach English to Spanish speakers in the United States</span>.

F. David was selected for a teaching program in his school and was sent to teach English in Spain.

 

I think David had a background about English when he was in High school. He was able to practice it by writing. Both A and B happened in his high school years, that is why they are ranked a and b. Then the rest would most probably happen after high school
