What is the author's purpose for using a black spot on
vaieri [72.5K]

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.

What is the independent clause in the following sentence? Because the shirt had a tear, we returned it. Because the shirt had a
OlgaM077 [116]
The independent clause in the sentence is "we returned it." This is the answer because if you say the sentence alone it makes since and it does not need another sentence to support it. Furthermore, the dependent clause in that sentence is "Because the shirt had a tear,". This does not express a reasoning for the shirt having a tear. But, "we returned it", has a subject and a verb. "we" is the subject, and the action of returning is the verb. I hope this has been helpful. : )
