Read the passage from "The Lottery." What is the author's purpose for using a black spot on
the paper?
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.
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

- a.) the man dies after he is unable to keep a fire lit.

always metal! releases anger and stress! bands i suggest are trivium, lamb of god, slayer, and amon amarth

the question is the text structure of this passage is. a. chronological order. b. problem and solution. c. cause and effect. d. compare and contrast.

there are not supposed to be quotations (¨ ¨) from an mla citation in a paper. if there was an author then the author´s last name should be in the parentheses instead. if it is a book, the page numbers hould be listed after the last name.

let´s use the book ¨to kill a mockingbird¨ by harper lee as an example:

"atticus finch is the same in his house as he is on the public streets¨ (lee 46).

hope this !
