Read the excerpt from “The Lottery.” Soon the men began to gather, surveying their own children, speaking of planting and rain, tractors and taxes. They stood together, away from the pile of stones in the corner, and their jokes were quiet and they smiled rather than laughed. The women, wearing faded house dresses and sweaters, came shortly after their menfolk. They greeted one another and exchanged bits of gossip as they went to join their husbands. Soon the women, standing by their husbands, began to call to their children, and the children came reluctantly, having to be called four or five times. Bobby Martin ducked under his mother's grasping hand and ran, laughing, back to the pile of stones. His father spoke up sharply, and Bobby came quickly and took his place between his father and his oldest brother. Explain what is learned by the actions of the characters in the excerpt. The lottery was a happy occasion because the men told jokes, the children laughed, and the women were able to exchange gossip. The lottery may not have been a happy occasion because the men smiled rather than laughed, and the children were apparently very hesitant to join their families when it started. Most of the villagers were indifferent about the lottery since it was held every year, and they already knew the outcome this time. Most of the villagers were ready to do away with the lottery since it was an outdated custom, carried over from years past.

a fable about lions writing history

I, Too, Sing America by Langston Hughes
I, too, sing America.

I am the darker brother.
They send me to eat in the kitchen
When company comes,
But I laugh,
And eat well,
And grow strong.

Tomorrow,
I'll be at the table
When company comes.
Nobody'll dare
Say to me,
"Eat in the kitchen,"
Then.

Besides,
They'll see how beautiful I am
And be ashamed--

I, too, am America

Read the poem above and discuss how the elements of this poem add to its emotional impact. What is the rhyme pattern? How does the punctuation affect your reading? Notice the word “then” in the second stanza, it seems to stand alone. How is that symbolic of the meaning of the poem?
Answer: there are many commas to slow down the reader- making it kind of choppy but effective. There is no rhyme pattern. The word then does stand alone just as the speaker feels he stands alone in America.

Excerpt from The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain “And there’s Jim chained by one leg, with a ten-foot chain, to the leg of his bed: why all you got to do is to lift up the bedstead and slip off the chain.” ----- “What do we want of a saw?” “What do we want of a saw? Hain’t we got to saw the leg of Jim’s bed off, so as to get the chain loose?” “Why you just said a body could lift up the bedstead and slip the chain off.” “Well, if that ain’t just like you, Huck Finn. You can get up the infant-schooliest ways of goin at a thing. Why, hain’t you read any books at all? ----- I says: “What do we want of a moat when we’re going to snake him out from under the cabin?” But he never heard me. He had forgot me and everything else. He had his chin in his hand, thinking. Pretty soon he sighs and shakes his head; then sighs again, and says: “No, it wouldn’t do—there ain’t necessity enough for it.” “For what?” I says. “Why to saw Jim’s leg off,” he says. “Good land!” I says: “why, there ain’t no necessity for it. And what would you want to saw his leg off for, anyway?” Read the excerpt from Chapter 35 of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn then answer the question: Although they are friends, Huck Finn and Tom Sawyer display different character traits and responses to events and to one another’s suggested plans. State one trait of each character that is evidenced in this excerpt. Explain how differences between the two characters add to the development and resolution of the episode presented. Include evidence from the text.
