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

English

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

Selena had an unexpected surprise when she attempted to duplicate a copy of a culinary dish she learned in
nadezda [96]

The correct answer is B) Selena had a surprise when she attempted to duplicate a dish she learned in culinary school.

The best way to rewrite the sentence to avoid repetition is "Selena had a surprise when she attempted to duplicate a dish she learned in culinary school."

The best way to express an idea is to be clear, specific, and direct. In good writing and good speech, we do not need to be redundant. We have to be direct to never confuse the reader. So we have to double-check our writing and see if there are grammar or spelling mistakes and if we put the sentence in the correct order to be understood.
