<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:

PIT_PIT [208]
In the essay Benjamin Franklin wrote in 1784 about Native Americans, titled “Remarks Concerning the Savages of North America”, he stated that the Native Americans were called savages “because their manners differ from ours, which we think the perfection of civility; they think the same of theirs.” The theme of empathy is seen in Franklin’s essay, as he encouraged seeing the other person’s point of view in dealing with the Native Americans. In highlighting the similarity of how Native Americans conduct their public councils to how order is maintained in the British House of Commons, he promoted the value of respect for diversity.
