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.
B: Informal style.
You can see this as the narrator says “the lead actor - I totally forgot his name - was crazy good.”

You can write a draft of ideas you have for an essay, making sure that all ideas are presented, and you can make a chart of how you want something to be presented, i.e. what will be in the introduction, what will be in the body and what will be in the conclusion. You can also plan out how you want the reader to see it. Sometimes in films they show something happening and then say "48 hours earlier" or something. It gives the reader an idea that you actually thought about how you want the story to be told. When you organize writing it's always important to have an open mind about what you're talking about. You can't have a narrow topic that you can't talk a lot about, you need ideas first.
