The Lottery Questions

1. Describe the setting, using specific details from the story in your answer. I thing is is a small town with dirt roads. And they have this platform at the end of a street where they do the lottery and the people stand in front of it when they do it. I think they are wooden houses and i think they are secluded from any big city's.

2. Explain the feelings of most people in town toward the lottery. I think they are fine with is especially the old mad because they don't have a problem at the end with the outcome of it. to be honest they seem very excited.

3. What evidence is there that the lottery has been going on for a long time?  They say that the box they use had some of the remainder parts of the previous box which was the original box that the town used when it was first created.

4. What is Old Man Warner’s attitude about those who would like to change  things?  He thinks it is a stupid to change it.

5. Explain how the lottery works. So there is a box with all of these papers in it and one of them has a black charcoal circle on it and they get the farther or any boys over sixteen (if no father present) and if that isn't the case the wife goes up. They all go up one at a time picking a paper out of the box and if your family gets the one with the black circle on it then 1 paper for every family member gets put into the box, and then that family does a draw and the person in that family that gets the paper with the black circle on the paper i could only assume gets killed.

6. In what way is the title, “The Lottery”, misleading?  Why would the author  want to trick the reader by having a misleading title?  The title is misleading because you would think that they are winning a money prize but instead they are getting killed.   And i think the author did it because it makes a plot twist and makes it more interesting.

The Jews In Nazi Germany

The Jews in Nazi Germany 


Where and when did this happen?
This happened in all throughout Germany in the years of 1933 - 1945


Why were people denied their human rights? 
Jewish people were denied their human rights based on their appearance. Adolf Hitler (mostly referred to as Hitler) looked at them and labeled them as “impure” and he gave himself the mission of making the whole world full of only pure people. This action was the start of one of the biggest mass murders in history. The Holocaust. 

How were people denied their human rights? Jewish people were denied their rights because Hitler had convinced others that Jews were “impure” and which made Jews not able to look how they wanted because under Hitler's eyes they looked impure. Jews lost their right to live freely because they couldn't even go out for a walk or couldn't go places because they would feel unsafe out in the community. Jews had the choice of work or die. A lot of people were put into concentration camps and if the people were of no use for the work that had to be done they would be taken away too either be executed or put into a gas chamber and they were gassed until they were dead.  Over all in the holocaust 6 million Jews had died.


What was done/has been done by individuals and groups to try to improve their situation? When Hitler passed away the allies of the whole situation occupied Germany and then over powered the Nazi party and then work as hard as they could too influence Germany's people. Even though Hitler had died and wasn't able too be taken too justice many of the Nazi leaders or higher up people were convicted of war crimes.
