What does Old Man Warner’s reaction reveal about his character and his values? Cite specific evidence from the text. the lottery by shirley jackson

Answer:

The old Warner reaction shows a discontent in abandoning the traditions of his region, which shows that he is very attached to them, that he does not consider traditions from other places as they are irrelevant to him. This shows that he is very faithful to his own concepts.

Explanation:

"The lottery" by Shirley Jackson tells the story of a region that had a barbaric and violent tradition called "lottery" that happens every year on June 27th. This ritual consisted of a person being drawn to be stoned to death. This was used as a sacrifice to ensure a good harvest.

Over the years, this ritual begins to be frowned upon by some inhabitants and as shown above, some of them do not want to participate in this anymore. Upon learning of this, Old Man Warner is disgusted because he is extremely attached to the traditions of his people.

The Three Sisters and the Troll
In the deepest part of the forest lived a little old man and his three daughters. The oldest daughter loved to read; the middle daughter loved to
sew; and the youngest daughter loved to explore the woods around their cottage.
One day, the oldest daughter asked her father for a new book to read. The middle daughter asked for thread. The youngest daughter asked for
a basket to carry the things she found on her explorations. The father agreed to walk into town to buy the things that his daughters needed. He
put on his cloak and his hat, kissed each daughter on the forehead, and told them to stay inside. Before leaving, he reminded them not to
answer the door to strangers.
A hungry troll watched as the father left. As soon as he was out of sight, the troll knocked on the door. The sisters thought it was their father
returning for something he forgot. They opened the door and came face-to-face with the troll. The troll lunged at the girls and tied them
together. Then he filled a pot with water and started adding herbs and vegetables stored in the cottage. He was going to cook the girls into a
stew. As he threw in the last vegetable, the water started to boil.
The oldest girl whispered to her sisters that she had a plan. She had read that onions could freeze a troll in his tracks. She tricked the trollinto
taking an onion from the cupboard by saying it was a delicious yellow apple. He greedily grabbed it and was frozen in place. The middle sister
figured out how to untie the ropes around them. She used them to sew the troll into a trap.
When their father returned, he was surprised to see the frozen troll sitting in the room. The youngest sister led them to a small cave far from
their cottage, where they could leave the troll. The girls and their father returned home to enjoy their new books, new thread, and new basket.
And the troll never bothered them again.

Which sentence in this excerpt from "Common Sense" by Thomas Paine proposes that the American colonies should be neutral in their
relationships with foreign nations?

I challenge the warmest advocate for reconciliation, to shew, a single advantage that this continent can reap, by being connected with Great
Britain. I repeat the challenge, not a single advantage is derived. Our corn will fetch its price in any market in Europe, and our imported goods
must be paid for, buy them where we will.
But the injuries and disadvantages we sustain by that connection, are without number; and our duty to mankind at large, as well as to ourselves,
instruct us to renounce the alliance: Because, any submission to or dependence on Great Britain, tends directly to involve this continent in
European wars and quarrels; and sets us at variance with nations, who would otherwise seek our friendship, and against whom, we have neither
anger nor complaint. As Europe is our market for trade, we ought to form no partial connection with any part of it. It is the true interest of
America to steer clear of European contentions, which she never can do, while by her dependence on Britain, she is made the make-weight in
the scale of British politics.
Europe is too thickly planted with kingdoms to be long at peace, and whenever a war breaks out between England and any foreign power, the
trade of America goes to ruin, BECAUSE OF HER CONNECTION WITH ENGLAND. The next war may not turn out like the last, and should it not
the advocates for reconciliation now, will be wishing for separation then, because, neutrality in that case, would be a safer convoy than a man of
war. Every thing that is right or natural pleads for separation. The blood of the slain, the weeping voice of nature cries, 'TIS TIME TO PART. Even
the distance at which the Almighty hath placed England and America, is a strong and natural proof, that the authority of the one, over the other,
was never the design of Heaven. The time likewise at which the continent was discovered, adds weight to the argument and the manner in
which it was peopled increases the force of it. The reformation was preceded by the discovery of America, as if the Almighty graciously meant to
open a sanctuary to the Persecuted in future years, when home should afford neither friendship nor safety.
