In "the lottery," what significant detail does the author use to set tessie hutchinson apart from the other villagers?
a) the crowd moves away from her when she arrives.
b) the crowd laughs her at every time she says anything.
c) she is the only person who is late on the day of the lottery.
d) she is the only person to protest the unfairness of the drawing.

C) She is the only person who is late on the day of the lottery.

Even before we know who was selected in the lottery, the author sets Tessie Hutchinson apart by telling us that she arrived late. She claims to have forgotten what day it was. This is markedly different to the rest of the villagers, as the lottery is the most important institution of the community, and it is inconceivable that someone could have forgotten about it. This "freedom" of mind that allows her to forget about the lottery sets her apart from everyone else in the village.

1. this would be first person. it would be like "i walked home from school today" they are the narrator of the story and is a character as well.

2. first person because they used the word "i" in the quote.

3. i'm really not sure about this one i'm really sorry i never read it so i wouldn't know how to answer it. 

4. it would be character vs. society because everyone he meets there is always a conflict of some sort because he's stuck in his daydream.

5. it would be sadness at the loss of youth because the title itself tells us it's about age so it couldn't be about regret. and the tone just sounds sad, not angry. 

i hope this !
