Answer:

The lottery paints a seemingly happy setting in the first paragraph,

The morning of June 27th was clear and sunny, with the fresh warmth of a full-summer day; the flowers were blossoming profusely and the grass was richly green.

We get the sense that this small agricultural town is meeting to celebrate some special event. This setting is a form of plot manipulation that underscores the irony behind the dark reasons for the gathering.

Which list only contains personal pronouns?
BartSMP [9]

Personal pronouns is the same as asking for singular nouns or pronouns because they both express words that deal with just one person. Personal Pronouns has the job to replace a characters name with terms such as “he” or “she” so the name won’t be repetitive throughout the whole story or so the story may have a shorter format.

Personal Pronouns use words:

I, you, he, she, it, we, they, me, him, her, us, and them

However, there’s also 1st point of view, 2nd point of view and 3rd point of view pronouns that would be worthy of looking searching :)
