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.

<u>Answer:</u>

<u><em>‘To see the movie’ </em></u><em>is the group of words which forms the prepositional phrase of the sentence. </em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

This is because it includes the preposition ‘to’, the object ‘movie’ and the modifier of the object ‘see’. It helps in giving the description of the noun and the actions which needs to take place. The word "see" demonstrates that the noun "movie" is actionable to vision and thus needs to be seen.
