Sorry but could you please tell me which one is the boxed word? I will help you once you tell me the word in the comment section.
Answer:A is the correct answer
Explanation:The reason for that is because if you ever don't understand a word you see the surrounding words or phrases.For example,the sentence "The little girl coward in fear when she saw the spider" Lets say you didn't know what coward meant but w do know that the sentence states that she feared the spider so coward might mean to be afraid or unable to do something.
Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
What is the author's purpose for using a black spot on the paper?
Read the passage from "The Lottery."
Bill Hutchinson went over to his wife and forced the slip of paper out of her hand. It had a black spot on it, the black spot Mr. Summers had made the night before with the heavy pencil in the coal-company office. Bill Hutchinson held it up, and there was a stir in the crowd.
O to represent the darkness of death
to maintain the tradition of the lottery
O to enhance the mystery of the lottery
O to represent the horror of disobedience
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.
