Read this excerpt from "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson.
People began to look around to see the Hutchinsons. Bill Hutchinson was standing quiet, staring down at the paper in his hand. Suddenly, Tessie Hutchinson shouted to Mr. Summers, “You didn’t give him time enough to take any paper he wanted. I saw you. It wasn’t fair!”
“Be a good sport, Tessie,” Mrs. Delacroix called, and Mrs. Graves said, “All of us took the same chance.”
“Shut up, Tessie,” Bill Hutchinson said.
“Well, everyone,” Mr. Summers said, “that was done pretty fast, and now we’ve got to be hurrying a little more to get done in time.” He consulted his next list. “Bill,” he said, “you draw for the Hutchinson family. You got any other households in the Hutchinsons?”
“There are Don and Eva,” Mrs. Hutchinson yelled. “Make them take their chance!”
“Daughters draw with their husbands’ families, Tessie,” Mr. Summers said gently. “You know that as well as anyone else.”
“It wasn’t fair,” Tessie said.
In Shirley Jackson's "The Lottery," how does the contrast between the characters’ view of the lottery and that of readers' impact the story?



The way the children of the town innocently approve of the lottery makes the readers' view of the lottery as foolish seem misguided and gives the story its conflict.

The way the women of the village celebrate and take pride in the lottery goes against the readers' view of it as a shameful event and gives the text its wacky tone.

The Hutchinsons' positive view of the lottery throughout the story differs from the readers' view of the lottery as suspicious from the very start to create humor as the story progresses.

Tessie's obviously negative view of the lottery after she wins conflicts with the readers' previous view of the lottery as rather mundane to create suspense about why Tessie gets so upset.

The prefix im- in the word impractical gives a clue that this word means

"very useful."
"more useful."
"not useful."
"too useful."

Answers

Answer:

"not useful"

Explanation:

The prefix im expresses negation; not, so when you call something impractical you are saying no-practical or not useful  

The prefix im- in the word impractical gives a clue that this word means "not useful". Thus, option third is correct.

What is the word impractical?

Implementing, maintaining, or using it is not a good idea. Impractical: incapable of managing practical matters sensibly or prudently can be defined as impractical.

People that lack pragmatism are typically not excellent at making or repairing things. Impractical arrangements, concepts, or approaches cannot be carried out, implemented, or used efficiently: having so many users attempting to use this equipment at the same time is unrealistic.

Anything that is impractical is something that is neither sensible nor realistic, something that does not operate well in practice. Living in one place and working in another, for example, is impractical. The phrases "unpractical" and "inconvenient" indicate the same thing. Therefore, it can be concluded that, option C is correct.

Stanley wasn't sure if the bus driver meant for him to be careful going down the steps, or if he was telling him to be careful at Camp Green Lake. "Thanks for the ride," he said. His mouth was dry and his throat hurt. He stepped onto the hard, dry dirt. There was a band of sweat around his wrist where the handcuff had been.

The land was barren and desolate. He could see a few rundown buildings and some tents. Farther away there was a cabin beneath two tall trees. Those two trees were the only plant life he could see. There weren't even weeds.

Answers

Answer:

D. Asking clarifying questions

Explanation:

According to the question, Frank politely interrupts Nia to ask if her information about coal mines apply to only the mines in the United States or all around the globe.

The discussion technique Frank is clearly using is asking clarifying questions. He asked the question to get clarity and avoid misconceptions because without his question, someone can wrongly (or rightly) assume that the information Nia gave is about all coal mines

Read the opening paragraph of "After Twenty Years” by O. Henry.

The policeman on the beat moved up the avenue impressively. The impressiveness was habitual and not for show, for spectators were few. The time was barely 10 o'clock at night, but chilly gusts of wind with a taste of rain in them had well nigh de-peopled the streets.

Trying doors as he went, twirling his club with many intricate and artful movements, turning now and then to cast his watchful eye adown the pacific thoroughfare, the officer, with his stalwart form and slight swagger, made a fine picture of a guardian of the peace. The vicinity was one that kept early hours. Now and then you might see the lights of a cigar store or of an all-night lunch counter; but the majority of the doors belonged to business places that had long since been closed.

What are the technical requirements of writing a sonnet, and what are the differences
between the three forms? Explain using details from the text.

Answers

Answer:

A sonnet is a short lyric poem that consists of 14 lines, typically written in iambic pentameter (a 10-syllable pattern of stressed and unstressed syllables) and following a specific rhyme scheme (of which there are several—we’ll go over this point more in just a moment).

Explanation:

In addition, sonnets have something called a volta (twist or turn), in which the rhyme scheme and the subject of the poem suddenly change, often to indicate a response to a question, a solution to a problem, or the resolving of some sort of tension established at the beginning of the poem. This turn normally happens closer to the end of the sonnet, though precisely when it appears varies depending on the particular sonnet form.

Explanation:

As Hamlet so aptly advised: "To thine own self be true."

A Colon is the punctuation mark that is used to direct you to the information. Colon is usually giving the silent impression of ''Which is'' ''As follows'' ''Thus'' ''Which are'' and more. In this case, we can see that colon is more appropriate than semicolon which presents the pause and it is usually used between two independent clauses.

A colon is the punctuation mark with two parallel dots and it can be easily recognized in a sentence.

Entry into the United States was most difficult for the
Chinese. In part, Angel Island was built to enforce laws
that restricted Chinese immigration. Such laws as the
Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 were written out of
prejudice and fear that Chinese workers were taking jobs
away from European Americans. Around 30 percent of
Chinese immigrants at Angel Island were forced to return
to China.
The rest, those who could prove they had a husband or
