Explain the main conflict between a character and<br> society in "The Lottery,
const2013 [10]

Answer:

Someone has already answered this

Explanation:

They just actually doing the wrong way of controlling their population by launching a lottery and killing the one who gotten the black mark/circle. The central conflict in “The Lottery” is the external conflict of person vs. society, because it is the traditions of the village that cause Tessie Hutchinson to be killed, and one other person a year before her. A person vs. society conflict exists when the rules or governance of the society come into conflict with the character.  The character is threatened or impaired in some way by society.  In this story, all characters are at conflict with society because the victim is chosen by lottery, but the Hutchinsons are the main conflict.

“The Lottery” is the story of a village that sacrifices one of its people each year.  The victim is chosen by lottery.  There is no reason for this murder, except that things are done as they always have been.

No one knows the original purpose of the lottery.  They will not even repair the three-legged stool so it can stand by itself, or replace the dilapidated black box, because “no one liked to upset even as much tradition as was represented by the black box.”  They seem to see the lottery as nothing more than an interruption in their daily routine.

"Well, now." Mr. Summers said soberly, "guess we better get started, get this over with, so's we can go back to work.

People in the village act the way they do because that is the way it’s always been.  The lottery has been used since the first villagers settled, so they continue it.  No one questions anything.  Parts of the ritual only change when no one can remember them.

This story represents the costs of going along with everyone else.  If people don’t question things because no one else questions them, then grave injustices will continue.  The mob mentality allows individuals to be anonymous and not held accountable for their choices.  Like peer pressure, people just go along with whatever is done by the next person.

Hello. This question is incomplete. the complete question is:

The Diary of a Young Girl

by Anne Frank (excerpt)

Sunday, June 14, 1942

I'll begin from the moment I got you, the moment I saw you lying on the table among my other birthday presents. (I went along when you were bought, but that doesn't count.)

On Friday, June 12, I was awake at six o'clock, which isn't surprising, since it was my birthday. But I'm not allowed to get up at that hour, so I had to control my curiosity until quarter to seven. When I couldn't wait any longer, I went to the dining room, where Moortje (the cat) welcomed me by rubbing against my legs. A little after seven I went to Daddy and Mama and then to the living room to open my presents, and you were the first thing I saw, maybe one of my nicest presents. Then a bouquet of roses, some peonies and a potted plant. From Daddy and Mama I got a blue blouse, a game, a bottle of grape juice, which to my mind tastes a bit like wine (after all, wine is made from grapes), a puzzle, a jar of cold cream, 2.50 guilders and a gift certificate for two books. I got another book as well, Camera Obscura (but Margot already has it, so I exchanged mine for something else), a platter of homemade cookies (which I made myself, of course, since I've become quite an expert at baking cookies), lots of candy and a strawberry tart from Mother. And a letter from Grammy, right on time, but of course that was just a coincidence.

Then Hanneli came to pick me up, and we went to school. During recess I passed out cookies to my teachers and my class, and then it was time to get back to work. I didn't arrive home until five, since I went to gym with the rest of the class. (I'm not allowed to take part because my shoulders and hips tend to get dislocated.) As it was my birthday, I got to decide which game my classmates would play, and I chose volleyball. Afterward they all danced around me in a circle and sang "Happy Birthday." When I got home, Sanne Ledermann was already there. Ilse Wagner, Hanneli Goslar and Jacqueline van Maarsen came home with me after gym, since we're in the same class.

Which memoir structure does this passage follow?

A.)Cause and effect  B.)Flashback  C.)Chronological  D.)List

Answer:

B.)Flashback

Explanation:

A flashback is presented when the narration exposes events that happened in the past and that are being remembered by the narrator. An example of flashback can be seen in the excerpt above, where on June 14, 1942, the narrator is celebrating and narrating the events that happened on June 12, 1942.

In narrations, flachbacks are created through stimuli that provide memory. In the case of the excerpt above, the stimulus occurred when the narrator touched the diary and decided to write the events that occurred before that moment.
