Shirley Jackson told: "the idea for "The Lottery" had come to me while I was pushing my daughter up the hill in her stroller—it was, as I say, a warm morning, and the hill was steep, and besides my daughter, the stroller held the day’s groceries—and perhaps the effort of that last 50 yards up the hill put an edge to the story.”
Explanation:
"The Lottery" is a short story written by Shirley Jackson in which members of a small community join together every year to follow a tradition according to which, randomly, the destiny of one of them is decided. The raffler winner is stoned to the dead to ensure prosperity for the whole village. The title is a clear instance of irony.

Answer and Explanation:
Romeo and Paris are similar only in their desire to marry J * and their admiration for her. However, the difference between these two characters is more striking than their similarities. That's because Romeo is a kind guy who wins J*'s heart that corresponds to his feelings for her. However, Paris is an arrogant and petty boy with manias of greatness that J * despises and disapproves of.
J*'s family wants her to marry Paris, since she has already secretly married Romeo. This makes J* pretend he died so he can get away with Romeo. However, Romeo learns of J*'s death as if it were something real and when he arrives at the crypt where her body is kept, he fights with Paris who was watching over her, and ends up killing him. Then Romeo, desolated by the girl's death, kills himself and J* upon waking up to see Romeo dead, she kills hierself too.
