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

This wonderful speech given twice (the last time in the middle of the civil war) by Sojourner Truth, emphasized and pleads for the right of women to be recognized as women. This mother of 13 [who saw most of her children sold into slavery] is not pleading for equality and voting rights. She is pleading for decency. 

The whole speech is very moving. You might want to look it up.
