Bond [772]3 years ago

<u>Answer:</u> a) The reader must infer that Mr. Watson is last year's victim since his son, Jack, is designated as head of household.

The story is "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson.

The passage the question is referring to is the following:

<em> "Right." Sr. Summers said. He made a note on the list he was holding. Then he asked, "Watson boy drawing this year?" </em>

<em>A tall boy in the crowd raised his hand. "Here," he said. "I'm drawing for my mother and me." He blinked his eyes nervously and ducked his head as several voices in the crowd said things like "Good fellow, Jack." and "Glad to see your mother's got a man to do it."</em>

We have previously learned that if a household does not have a "father" to draw for the family, the responsibility passes to the oldest son. In this case, Jack is drawing for him and his mother, which implies that there is no "father" to do it. Therefore, we can assume that his father, Mr. Watson, has been killed in the lottery of previous years,

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

Oedipus is intensely angry when he kills his biological father and when he fights with Creon and Teiresias for giving him bad news.

Explanation:

Oedipus has difficulties in controlling his emotions, especially anger. That's because he is a person with an explosive temperament, who can't handle solving intrigues with ease and who expresses himself with violence. This personality trait not only leaves Oedipus a very intense character, but also leaves him a real person who often does not act rationally, being totally controlled by anger, leaving his story totally unpredictable.

Oedipus' anger may be exaggerated for us, but it was a common feature for the Greek society that created this play. That's because the Greeks at that time lived in a very violent time with several invasions and stress. Watching a character unleash his anger in a grandiose way could be somewhat comfortable for the Greeks.
