Read the passage from "The Lottery.” Then the voices began to say, "It’s Hutchinson. It’s Bill,” "Bill Hutchinson’s got it.”

"Go tell your father,” Mrs. Dunbar said to her older son.

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’s 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.
