Answer:
The beginning of “The Lottery” doesn’t seem very odd. The people seem relatively normal, the adults are working, yet there is a sense of uneasiness. It soon becomes clear that the “lottery” that keeps getting mentioned is what causes this sense of unease. Yet the reader is still unaware of what part of this lottery is making them uncomfortable, and it starts to become clear that winning the lottery is not a good thing. Slowly the reader puts together various pieces of the story, and it becomes clear what will happen: the winner of the lottery is stoned to death, supposedly to ensure a good harvest. The story becomes darker and darker as one realizes that no one really even knows the origin of the ritual and why it cannot be done away with. It becomes clear that “The Lottery” is a prime example of a dystopia, because propaganda is used to control the citizens, which leads to the freedom of information being heavily restricted. This happens to the point where citizens from different towns rarely speak with one another. One must question why this information is restricted (or rather, has it simply been forgotten?) how it came to be this way, and why the citizens don’t work to change it.

Select all the correct answers. What can be concluded about Mrs. Hale from this excerpt from Trifles by Susan Glaspell? COUNTY ATTORNEY: (with the gallantry of a young politician) And yet, for all their worries, what would we do without the ladies? (The women do not unbend. He goes to the sink, takes a dipperful of water from the pail and pouring it into a basin, washes his hands. Starts to wipe them on the roller-towel, turns it for a cleaner place) Dirty towels! (kicks his foot against the pans under the sink) Not much of a housekeeper, would you say, ladies? MRS HALE: (stiffly) There's a great deal of work to be done on a farm. COUNTY ATTORNEY: To be sure. And yet (with a little bow to her) I know there are some Dickson county farmhouses which do not have such roller towels. (He gives it a pull to expose its length again.) MRS HALE: Those towels get dirty awful quick. Men's hands aren't always as clean as they might be. Mrs. Hale believes that Mrs. Wright is innocent. Mrs. Hale is not a good housekeeper. Mrs. Hale wants to defend Mrs. Wright in her absence. Mrs. Hale feels guilty for not visiting her neighbor earlier. Mrs. Hale does not like the county attorney's attitude.
Answer:
Explanation:
Hi!
So, let's just work on examining the excerpt we've been given. From the look of it, it appears that the County Attorney is not embraced in this area.
We get a hint of this from Mrs. Hale's first reply: (stiffly) There's a great deal of work to be done on a farm'.
She appears blunt, and the writer even tells us she says this in a stiff tone. This shows that she is not in the liking of the County Attorney, or his attitude.
I hope I helped you! :)
Think about something you might want to rent. An instrument? A book? A piece of equipment? Do some Internet research and find an organization in your city that can rent you an item of interest. Find the Terms of Agreement, the period of rental, and any penalties or late fees. Are there any special terms of use or waivers? Now, imagine that you are an employee of that same organization. Write a brief narrative taking the point of view of the store employee talking with a customer. Imagine the customer did not know anything about the Terms of Agreement. Be sure that your character explains the Terms of Agreement, as well as the details about the item being rented. Be sure to include a beginning, middle, and end to your story as well as details. Consider starting your story with the line: "It was a long day at [enter name of company here] when this [enter description here] looking customer came up to me and began asking me questions about [enter product description] that they wanted to rent..." Do you want your story to take a serious or comedic tone? Have fun with the details, but be sure to include the information about the Terms of Agreement for the customer. Your narrative should be at least 150-250 words in length. View the rubric for this assignment.

"So how much money do I need to pay each month to rent the football?" he asked I told him that he needed to pay $30 each month. "What is the "Terms of Agreement"?" he curiously asked. "It is very serious terms of use, for people to know what they are getting into and what they need to know when they are buying our product, we are not responsible if you lose or damage your product".

What do the individual describe in each poem read represent about the idea of American dream of Carl sandburg
Is Goldilocks a round, flat, dynamic or static character
Answer: a round character is different than a dynamic character, and a flat character is different than a static character.
Let's start with dynamic and static. A static character is a character that doesn't change over the course of the book, film, show, video game, etc. The character will have a personality, thoughts, and opinions, but all of those things will remain the same throughout the entire story. On the other hand, a dynamic character will change in some way. Maybe he/she starts the story as a bigoted racist and ends the story as somebody that is fighting for racial...

how would you relate the left handed and right handed twins to your own concept of good and evil
Answer:
See below.
Explanation:
I will assume that this question is from the myth, "The World on Turtles back". If it is not I apologize. But if it is, the left and right twins are the exact example of ying and yang, good and bad. The left-handed twin represents evil, war, and the 'bad' aspect of human nature. The right-handed twin represents being responsible, correct, and what we would consider the 'good' aspect of human nature today. Relating it to myself, I would see the right-handed twin as who I would always try to be, and see the left-handed twin as completely evil and who I would try to avoid being like that twin any way I could. But it really depends on what your own perspective of human nature is, because really anyone is possible of being good or bad.
