(Someone helps asap! Ill give brainliest) Read this excerpt from "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson.
Although the villagers had forgotten the ritual and lost the original black box, they still remembered to use stones. The pile of stones the boys had made earlier was ready; there were stones on the ground with the blowing scraps of paper that had come out of the box. Mrs. Delacroix selected a stone so large she had to pick it up with both hands and turned to Mrs. Dunbar. “Come on,” she said. “Hurry up.”
Mrs. Dunbar had small stones in both hands, and she said, gasping for breath, “I can’t run at all. You’ll have to go ahead and I’ll catch up with you.”
The children had stones already, and someone gave little Davy Hutchinson a few pebbles.
Tessie Hutchinson was in the center of a cleared space by now, and she held her hands out desperately as the villagers moved in on her. “It isn’t fair,” she said. A stone hit her on the side of the head.
Old Man Warner was saying, “Come on, come on, every-one.” Steve Adams was in the front of the crowd of villagers, with Mrs. Graves beside him.
By the end of Shirley Jackson's "The Lottery," how does the contrast between the characters’ view of the lottery and that of readers' impact the story?
A. Because the characters view the lottery as fun and enjoyable, while readers see it as disappointing, it adds humor to the story.
B. Because the characters’ view the lottery as acceptable, while readers view it as horrific, it creates shock and suspense over Tessie's fate.
C. Because the characters view the lottery as an important annual ritual, while readers view it as outdated and dull, it gives the story a soothing tone.
D. Because the characters view the lottery as dangerous, while readers see it as exciting, it fuels confusion and outrage over Tessie's behavior.
Answer:
B. Because the characters’ view the lottery as acceptable, while readers view it as horrific, it creates shock and suspense over Tessie's fate.
Explanation:
There is a description of the town and how they had a certain lottery every year and how some of the people did not like it, but wanted to continue tradition and as result of this, we can see that there is a horrific case of Tessie to the readers because they are shocked by the way her case turns out, but for the characters in the novel, it is already a normal way of life for them.
" If I were a world leader" essay. At least 15 sentences.
Answer:A good leader must certainly inspire others. A leader must be a role model for his followers. Furthermore, he must motivate them whenever possible. Also, in difficult situations, a leader must not lose hope. How can a leader inspire people if he himself is hopeless?
Honesty is another notable quality of a leader. Honesty and Integrity are important to earn the love of followers. Above all, honesty is essential to win the trust of the people. Probably, every Leadership which loses trust is bound to fail. People will not work with full effort due to an immoral leader.
Good communication is a must for a good leader. This is because poor communication means the wrong message to followers. Furthermore, good communication will increase the rate of work. Also, the chances of mistakes by followers will reduce.

Would you rather have telekinesis (the ability to move things with your mind) or telepathy (the ability to read minds)?
GIVE ME A REASON WHY
Answer: Telepathy
Explanation: I would want to read someone's mind, so I know what their thinking and feeling. Though I would never tell them I know what their thinking, it would be nice to know. Say you were telling your crush you liked them, and they started laughing at you because their friends were. I would want to know what they really thought about me. If they actually liked me and were embarrassed to say so, or if they genuinely didn't. I also think it would be funny because you could say what you best friends thinking before she or he says something about it. I think it would be cool to be on the same page with people all the time.
Hope this is a good explanation. :)

Jillian reads the following paragraph from a book.
Tess knew the odds were against her, but duty compelled her to try; her sister’s life depended on her success. She packed only what was essential: a few days’ worth of food and water, a map, and her grandmother’s book of advice. But would her grandmother’s wisdom be enough to overcome the impending dangers? Tess forced herself not to consider that right now.

Would you rather find true love today or win the lottery next year?
Tell me why.
Best answer gets to pick between a thanks or brainliest:)
Answer:
find true love today
Explanation:
finding my true love is more important then winning money:)
plus you didnt say how much money was in the lottery;)
Answer: Find true love today.
Explanation: In my opinion, true love means so much more than money. Because if you've never loved anyone, what's the point to life. We all need someone, a shoulder to lean on. Yes, money is great and so is winning the lottery. You would never have to worry about money ever again. But when you find someone it's so much more than just spending money. Money will get boring after a while. You can't talk to it or share good laughs with it. Yeah, it can bring joy in the things you buy with it, but never true happiness. But when you find that special person who you can share anything with, it makes the world a little brighter to you. It's like you were seeing in black and white, and then you see pure, vibrant color. If we didn't have love, the world would be darker to us. Whether that's the love of a parent and child, two best friends, or two people who fell in love with each other. Love is all around us and is in everything. Even the bitterest of people need love. Though most deny it, it's true.

Read the stanza from "Twelfth Song of Thunder.”
The voice that beautifies the land!
The voice above,
The voice of the thunder
Within the dark cloud
Again and again it sounds,
The voice that beautifies the land.
Which message does the repetition in the stanza make clear?
The sound of thunder up above, crashing repeatedly, makes the natural landscape beautiful.
The crashing of the thunder as it rolls over the land is everywhere and makes the people nervous.
The thundering sounds of the storm are everywhere and can make nature a dangerous place.
Some thunder is coming over the landscape, but it appears that it will only be temporary.
The stanza provides the voice of thunder which describes the feelings and emotions of the writer. It is personified to the real life problems in a human life.
The first paragraph states the beauty of the land which is covered by the voice of thunder that darkens the beautiful lands. The sound of thunder covers the land of beauty with the dark clouds and obstacles the sunray that falls on the pleasant land. The beautiful landscape is darken by the thunder which has created a mess in the place.
The important message given from the repetition in stanza clears that the voice thunder destroy the peace and creates the sense of tension in people.
The poet metaphorically provides that the sound crashes the beauty of the landscape, it causes the sense of tension and nervous in the minds of people about the darken clouds and terrified voice of thunder.
The thunder that fled over the lands has caused a magnified damage to the beautiful land and the people feels that the place is unsafe to lead their life.
The thunderstorm that comes over the landscape frequently to destroy the beauty of land but the poet also feels that the thunder is not permanent it needs to be stopped one day.
Similarly the life of a human leads to many problems and uncertainties but we must always remember that no problems can be permanent everything has a solution.
