Answer:

A). It takes place annually, in late June.

Explanation:

The statement that is accurate regarding the short story 'The Lottery' authored by Shirley Jackson is that the rite known as 'lottery' took place annually in the town towards the end of June. In the story, the lottery event took place on the 27th of June(late June) when the townsfolk gathered together for accomplishing the tradition. Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer and the others are incorrect because the townspeople were excited about the tradition instead of putting an end to it. The children gathered stones before the event which signifies that they were extremely willing to participate and neither of the people was willing to change except Tessie Hutchinson who was eventually stoned to death as she questioned the tradition and used reason.

Vanyuwa [196]

The key characteristic for one listening with empathy is to give the speaker your undivided attention.  Because Jeff fell asleep, he obviously had not been providing this.  Further, when one is empathetic, one is able to understand the position/place of someone else.  Obviously, if Jeff were speaking, he would want his audience to pay attention, so he should have recognized this and been conscious of that for Elizabeth.  By Jeff falling asleep, he does not understand the perspective of someone else in order to recognize how to respectfully listen (or listen with empathy).
