Answer:
O to enhance the mystery of the lottery
Explanation:
The author presents the black spot on the paper as a way to convey a mysterious sensation to the reader. This is because the reader does not understand what this black spot represents, but understands that it is not a good and fun thing. In this way the reader begins to doubt the nature of the lottery and what it refers to. In this case, the author manages to show through the black spot on the paper, the mystery that the lottery carries, thus imposing a suspense in the plot.

Plus using the Black English is a great thing to use in this expert because it helps the man connect with him and understand where the black man is coming from, if that makes sense. Hopefully this helps!
