The Lottery
by Shirley Jackson
Full Text below
The Lottery" is a short story first published in 1948 in the magazine The New Yorker.
When first published, it received an incredibly negative response from readers. This
controversial story was banned in America and became one of the most banned books
in schools and libraries. Over time, it has become a classic American story.
The reader is taken into a narrative journey which finds the traditions and values of
small town America twisted into a sort of barbaric violence. You may be surprised to
realize that the town's "lottery" is not at all what you imagine it to be…
The morning of June 27th was clear and sunny, with the fresh warmth of a full-
summer day; the flowers were blossoming profusely and the grass was richly green.
The people of the village began to gather in the square, between the post office and
the bank, around ten o'clock; in some towns there were so many people that the
lottery took two days and had to be started on June 2th. but in this village, where there
were only about three hundred people, the whole lottery took less than two hours, so it
could begin at ten o'clock in the morning and still be through in time to allow the
villagers to get home for noon dinner.
The children assembled first, of course. School was recently over for the summer, and
the feeling of liberty sat uneasily on most of them; they tended to gather together
quietly for a while before they broke into boisterous play. and their talk was still of
the classroom and the teacher, of books and reprimands. Bobby Martin had already
stuffed his pockets full of stones, and the other boys soon followed his example,
selecting the smoothest and roundest stones; Bobby and Harry Jones and Dickie
Delacroix- the villagers pronounced this name "Dellacroy"-eventually made a great
pile of stones in one corner of the square and guarded it against the raids of the other
boys.
The girls stood aside, talking among themselves, looking over their shoulders at the
boys. and the very small children rolled in the dust or clung to the hands of their older
brothers or sisters.

The story describes the annual lottery held in a small village. Each year, one family is selected by drawing slips of paper from a black box. This year, Bill Hutchinson's family is selected.

took less than two hours, so it could begin at ten o'clock in the morning and still be through in

The children assembled first, of course. School was recently over for the summer, and the feeling

girls stood aside, talking among themselves, looking over their shoulders at the boys, and the
very small children rolled in the dust or clung to the hands of their older brothers or sisters.
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.
The lottery was conducted--as were the square dances, the teen club, the Halloween program--by
Mr. Summers, who had time and energy to devote to civic activities. He was a round-faced,
jovial man and he ran the coal business, and people were sorry for him because he had no
children and his wife was a scold. When he arrived in the square, carrying the black wooden box,
there was a murmur of conversation among the villagers, and he waved and called, "Little late
today, folks." The postmaster, Mr. Graves, followed him, carrying a three- legged stool, and the
stool was put in the center of the square and Mr. Summers set the black ...

were blossoming profusely and the grass was richly green. The people of the village began to gather in
the square, between the post office and the bank, around ten o'clock; in some towns there were so many
people that the lottery took two days and had to be started on June 2th. but in this village, where there
were only about three hundred people, the whole lottery took less than two hours, so it could begin at ten
o'clock in the morning and still be through in time to allow the villagers to get home for noon dinner.
The children assembled first, of course. School was recently over for the summer, and the feeling of
liberty sat uneasily on most of them; they tended to gather together quietly for a while before they broke
into boisterous play. and their talk was still of the classroom and the teacher, of books and reprimands.

example, selecting the smoothest and roundest stones; Bobby and Harry Jones and Dickie Delacroix-- the
villagers pronounced this name "Dellacroy"--eventually made a great pile of stones in one corner of the

The lottery by shirley jackson the morning of june 2JASS44
The document describes the annual lottery that takes place in a small village, where residents gather in the town square each year to participate in the ritual drawing of papers from a black box to see who will be stoned to death as a sacrifice. The lottery is overseen by Mr. Summers, who ensures all residents are accounted for and properly draws papers from the box while the crowd looks on anxiously. Although the ritual's origins are unclear, it has been a tradition for generations in the isolated community.
The summary analyzes a document that describes a village gathering for their annual lottery. The villagers, including children and families, assemble in the town square as Mr. Summers prepares to conduct the lottery using slips of paper in a black box. Attendees chat with each other until Mr. Summers calls the lottery to order to determine who will draw from the box and which families are represented.

The summary highlights the key characters, setting, themes of tradition, conformity and violence, and symbolic elements in the story.
The document provides a summary of the short story "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson. It describes the key characters including Mr. Summers, Old Man Warner, Tessie Hutchinson and her family. It also summarizes the plot where the villagers participate in a yearly lottery that results in one person being stoned to death. The summary highlights how the villagers are deeply committed to tradition and resist any changes to the lottery process.
The document provides a semi-detailed lesson plan for teaching the short story "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson to 10th grade English students. The plan includes learning objectives, a summary of the story, vocabulary words, discussion questions, and an evaluation. It will teach students about the story's themes of tradition, conformity, and mob mentality through class activities like reviewing literary devices, discussing characters, and analyzing pictures from the plot. Students will then reflect on their understanding of the story and its commentary on society.
The story describes an annual lottery held in a small town where residents gather to draw slips of paper. The family that draws the paper with the black spot is subject to an unknown fate. Over time, some villagers have begun to question the purpose of continuing the lottery tradition. However, the older residents strongly advocate adhering to the past customs without reflection. The story highlights how blind conformity can lead to injustice, insincerity, and impracticality over time.
The document analyzes symbolism in the short story "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson. It discusses how various elements in the story, such as the black wooden box, slips of paper, and stones, represent the long-standing tradition of the violent lottery ritual and the emotions it evokes among the unwilling participants. The lottery has been practiced in the village for as long as anyone can remember and represents how harmful customs can persist solely through tradition rather than reason.
The villagers of a small town gather for their annual lottery, where one person is stoned to death. Mr. Summers oversees the lottery, calling names and having each family draw slips of paper from a black box. Bill Hutchinson is revealed to have the marked slip, but his wife Tessie protests that it wasn't fair. When the Hutchinsons draw again, Tessie receives the marked paper. The villagers then stone Tessie to death as tradition dictates.
The villagers of a small town gather for their annual lottery drawing. Each family draws a slip of paper from a black box, which is used to randomly select one member of the community to be stoned to death, preserving a long-standing tradition. This year, Tessie Hutchinson's family is selected, and despite her protests that it is unfair, she is stoned to death by the other villagers as is the tradition.

Lab 8 -Ballistic Pendulum
Since you will be designing your own procedure you will have two
class periods to take the required data.
The goal of this lab is to measure the speed of a ball that is fired
from a projectile launcher using two different methods. The
Projectile launcher has three different settings, “Short Range,”
“Medium Range” and “Long Range,” however you will only need to
determine the speed for any ONE of these Range settings.
Method 1 involves firing the ball directly into the “Ballistic
Pendulum” shown below in Figure 2 for which limited instructions will be provided. Method 2
is entirely up to your group. While you have significant freedom to design your own procedure,
you will need to worry about the random and systematic uncertainties you are introducing
based on your procedure. This manual will provide a few hints to help reduce a few of those
uncertainties.
The ballistic pendulum pictured in Figure 2 is important canonical problem students study to
explore the conservation of momentum and energy. The ball is fired by the projectile launcher
into a “perfectly inelastic collision” with the pendulum. The pendulum then swings to some
maximum angle which is measured by an Angle Indicator.
Caution: The pendulum has a plastic hinge and Angle Indicator which are both fragile. Be
gentle.
Study the ballistic pendulum carefully. Before we begin, here are a few things to consider and
be aware of in Figure 2:
Projectile launcher
Angle indicator (curved
black bar)
Clamp
Pendulum (can be removed
for measurements)

A. Clamping the ballistic pendulum to the table will reduce random uncertainties in the
speed with which the projectile launcher releases the ball. Similarly, you should check
that the various bolts are snug and that the ball is always fully inside the launcher (not
rolling around inside the barrel of launcher).
B. If the lab bench is not perfectly horizontal the plumb bob and angle indicator will not
read zero degrees before you begin your experiment. You should fix AND/OR account
for these discrepancies.
C. In Figure 3 you will notice a tiny gap between the launcher and the pendulum. This
important gap prevents the launcher from contacting the pendulum directly as the ball
is fired. Without this gap an unknown amount of momentum is transferred from the
launcher directly to the pendulum (in addition to the momentum transferred by the
ball) significantly complicating our experiment.

I Samuel 8-10
Israel Asks for a King
8 When Samuel grew old, he appointed his sons as Israel’s leaders.[a]2 The
name of his firstborn was Joel and the name of his second was Abijah, and
they served at Beersheba. 3 But his sons did not follow his ways. They turned
aside after dishonest gain and accepted bribes and perverted justice.
4 So all the elders of Israel gathered together and came to Samuel at
Ramah. 5 They said to him, “You are old, and your sons do not follow your
ways; now appoint a king to lead[b] us, such as all the other nationshave.”
6 But when they said, “Give us a king to lead us,” this displeasedSamuel; so
he prayed to the LORD. 7 And the LORD told him: “Listen to all that the people
are saying to you; it is not you they have rejected, but they have rejected
me as their king. 8 As they have done from the day I brought them up out of
Egypt until this day, forsaking me and serving other gods, so they are doing
to you. 9 Now listen to them; but warn them solemnly and let them
know what the king who will reign over them will claim as his rights.”
10 Samuel told all the words of the LORD to the people who were asking him
for a king. 11 He said, “This is what the king who will reign over you will claim
as his rights: He will take your sons and make them serve with his chariots
and horses, and they will run in front of his chariots. 12 Some he will assign to
be commanders of thousands and commanders of fifties, and others to plow
his ground and reap his harvest, and still others to make weapons of war
and equipment for his chariots. 13 He will take your daughters to be
perfumers and cooks and bakers. 14 He will take the best of your fields and
vineyards and olive groves and give them to his attendants. 15 He will take a
tenth of your grain and of your vintage and give it to his officials and
attendants. 16 Your male and female servants and the best of your cattle[c] and
donkeys he will take for his own use. 17 He will take a tenth of your flocks,
and you yourselves will become his slaves. 18 When that day comes, you will
cry out for relief from the king you have chosen, but the LORD will not
answer you in that day.”

king over us. 20 Then we will be like all the other nations, with a king to lead
us and to go out before us and fight our battles.”
21 When Samuel heard all that the people said, he repeated it before
the LORD. 22 The LORD answered, “Listen to them and give them a king.”
Then Samuel said to the Israelites, “Everyone go back to your own town.”

Journal Entry #9
What principle did you select?
I selected principle 1 of part 1, “Don’t criticize, condemn or complain”.
Who did you interact with?
For this assignment I interacted with my younger cousin.
What was the context?
I had visited my Aunty and she and her husband asked me to stay a while as I was on school
break. They accommodated me and I decided in return to help look after my cousin in the period
when he got out of school and before they got back from work. He is 5 years old and can be quite
the handful.
What did you expect?
I expected that an authoritative approach would easily compel him to follow my instructions so
that the transition from school life into home life would be easy.
What happened?
At first, I used commanding language to get him to change out of his uniform or properly store
his back pack and books before stepping out to play. The first day was difficult and the way I
deal with him were not getting through. On the 2nd day, the same was observed. On the 3rd day,
before he could drop his back pack and run out, I offered to make him a sandwich to eat before
he left to play if he would change and clean up. He rushed up stairs and freshened up. On the
next day, he came home and rushed up to change and freshen up all on his own. I had not
initially offered; but I made him a sandwich regardless.
How did it make you feel?
It made me feel good to be able to get through to my cousin. After this, if I ever needed him to
do something in a better way than previously, I would encourage him onto a different way of
accomplishing the same. I would often offer praise after adoption of the new suggested method
was adopted or offered incentive.

I learnt that in criticizing a person’s action, it is difficult to deter their belief in their methods,
values or beliefs. This usually just gives them the will to justify or defend their positions. It is
almost an exercise in futility to attempt to effect change by complaining, condemning or
criticizing.
What surprised you?
I was surprised by how fast the change was effected after the shift in direction I took to approach
my cousin. In not criticizing his way of doing things any longer and employing a different tactic,
I was able to influence his routine as well as build good rapport with him.
Going forward, how can you apply what you learnt?
Going forward I will attempt to understand that everyone has a belief or image of their own that I
should respect. These beliefs, systems and values are crucial to their inherent dignity and to
criticize or attack this will only fuel conflict.

HCA 448 Case 2 for 10/04/2018
Recently, a patient was transferred to a cardiac intensive care unit (CICU) at Methodist Hospital.
Methodist is a 250-bed hospital, which is one of five hospitals in the University Health System.
The patient was a retired 72-year-old man, who recently (i.e., 25 days ago) had a mild heart
attack and was treated and released from a sister hospital, which is in the same system as
Methodist Hospital. An otherwise health individual, Mr. Charlie Johnson (a husband, father of 4,
and grandfather of 12) is in now need or lots of medication and a battery of tests. To the nurses
on shift, it appears that the entire Johnson family is in patient’s room watching the clinical staff
treated Mr. Johnson. The family overhears everything and they want to know what is being done
to (and for) their loved one. In addition, they want to know the meaning behind the various beeps
coming from the many machines attached to Mr. Johnson.
Over the past 10 years, the latest U.S. News and World report has ranked Methodist Hospital as
one of the Best Hospitals for Cardiology & Heart Surgery. However, it is important to note that
over the past few years, the unit has dropped in the rankings.
Katherine Ross RN, the patient care director of the CICU, which has 14 beds, has held this post
for two years. (See Figure) The unit has a $20 million budget. Ms. Ross has worked at Methodist
Hospital for 16 years. She spends 50 percent of her time on patient safety, 25 percent on staffing
and recruitment, and 20 percent with nurses in relation to their satisfaction with the work and
with families relative to their satisfaction with care. Ten percent of Ms. Ross’s time is spent on
administrative duties. According to Ms. Ross, “I like is working with exceptional nurses who are
very smart and do what it takes with limited resources. However, we don’t always feel
empowered, despite the existence of shared governance, a structure I help to coordinate.”
2
Relationship with Nurses on the Unit:
Nurses on the unit work a three day a week, 12 hours a shift. Ms. Ross says, “we did an
employee opinion survey that went to all employees on the unit, 50 people in all, but only 13
responded. Some of them weren’t sure who their supervisor was. The employees aren’t happy
but our patients are happy.” She adds that “my name is on the unit, not the medical director’s. If
anything goes wrong with the unit, they blame it on nursing. Yet I’m brushed off by people
whom I have to deal with outside of the unit. For example, we have a problem with machines
that analyze blood gases. I spoke with the people there about the technology. This was four
weeks ago. It’s a patient safety issue. I sent them e-mails. I need the work to get done, the staff
don’t feel empowered if I’m not empowered. This goes for other departments as well. For
example, respiratory therapy starts using a new ventilator witho.

Cinemark Holdings Inc.: Simulated ERM Program
Ben Li, Assistant Vice President of Compliance, is assigned the responsibility of developing an ERM
program at Cinemark Holdings Inc. (CHI). Over the past year, Ben has put in place the following ERM
activities:
Risk Identification and Assessment
The risk identification and assessment process steps are as follows:
1) Conduct online surveys of the heads of the 10 business segments and their 1-2 direct reports (15
people) and their mid-level managers (80 people). Exhibit 1 shows the instructions that are
included in the online survey. Exhibit 2 shows samples of the information collected from the
online survey.
2) Each of the 10 business segments separately organizes and compiles the results of the online
survey. They typically compile a robust list of 70-80 potential key risks. Each business segment
then prioritizes their top-5 risks and reports them to Ben Li, resulting in a total of 50 key risks (a
partial sample of the top-50 risk list is shown in Exhibit 3).
3) A consensus meeting is conducted where the 50 risks are shared with the top 10 members of
senior management in an open-group setting at an offsite one-day event. The 50 risks are each
discussed one at a time, after which the facilitator has the group collectively discuss and score
them for likelihood and severity. The risk ranking is calculated as the likelihood score plus the
severity score; the control effectiveness score is used to determine if there is room to improve
the controls and is used in the risk decision making process step. The top-20 risks are identified
as the key risks to CHI and are selected for additional mitigation and advanced to the risk
decision making stage. A Heat Map (see Exhibit 4) is provided to assist in this effort.
4) The 30 risks remaining from the 50 discussed at the consensus meeting are considered the non-
key risks, and these are monitored with key risk indicators to see if, over time, either the
likelihood and/or severity is increasing to the level which would result in one of these being
elevated to a key risk.
Risk Decision Making
Ben Li formed a Risk Committee to look at the risk identification and assessment information and to
define CHI’s risk appetite and risk limits, which were defined as follows:
Risk Appetite
CHI will maintain its overall risk profile in a manner consistent with our mission and vision and with the
expectations of our shareholders.
Risk Limits
CHI will also avoid any individual risk exposures deemed excessive by its Risk Committee; the individual
risk exposures will be determined separately for each key risk. CHI has zero tolerance for risks related to
internal fraud or violations of the employee code of conduct.
2
Ben Li expanded the role of the Risk Committee to also select and implement the risk mitigation for each
of the 20 key risks, at the same time as the committee determines the risk limits. .

Contemporary Approaches in Management of Risk in Engineering Organizations
3
Introduction
The term, ‘risk’ as defined by the Oxford English dictionary is a possibility to meet with any
kind of danger or suffer harm. Risk is a serious issue that every organization has to deal with in
their everyday operations. However, nature and magnitude of risks largely vary from
organization to organization and often depend on the type of the organization. Therefore,
organizations irrespective of their type of operations keep a risk management team that looks
after every risk to which an organization is vulnerable. Organizations in the field of engineering
also have to come across some inherent risks that negatively impact their operations. Engineering
may be defined as the process of applying science to practical purposes of designing structures,
systems, machines and similar things. Therefore, like every other organization, risk assessment
and management is also an integral part of engineering organizations. Since the task of
engineering is mostly complex, the risks in this area are also very complicated. If risks in
engineering field are not mitigated effectively it may produce long-term danger that may affect
both the organizational services and the society in whole. Hence, the activity of risk management
within engineering organizations must be undertaken seriously and measured thoroughly in order
to reduce the threat of risks. Amyotte et al., (2006) simply puts it like within the engineering
practice, an inbuilt risk is always present. Studies have found that despite the knowledge of
inherent risks within the field and activity of engineering, organizations are not very aware in
imparting knowledge about risk management to their engineers. From this the need of education
regarding the risk management approaches arises. Therefore, this paper tries to find out
approaches to management of risks and importance of these approaches within the area of
engineering. Bringing on the contemporary evidence from the literature review related to risk
management approaches, the paper examines how those approaches can be helpful for

BIOL 102: Lab 9
Simulated ABO and Rh Blood Typing
Objectives:
After completing this laboratory assignment, students will be able to:
• explain the biology of blood typing systems ABO and Rh
• explain the genetics of blood types
• determine the blood types of several patients
Introduction:
Before Karl Landsteiner discovered the ABO human blood groups in 1901, it was thought that all blood was the
same. This misunderstanding led to fatal blood transfusions. Later, in 1940, Landsteiner was part of a team
who discovered another blood group, the Rh blood group system. There are many blood group systems known
today, but the ABO and the Rh blood groups are the most important ones used for blood transfusions. The
designation Rh is derived from the Rhesus monkey in which the existence of the Rh blood group was
discovered.
Although all blood is made of the same basic elements, not all blood is alike. In fact, there are eight different
common blood types, which are determined by the presence or absence of certain antigens – substances that
can trigger an immune response if they are foreign to the body – on the surface of the red blood cells (RBCs
also known as erythrocytes).
ABO System:
The antigens on RBCs are agglutinating antigens or agglutinogens. They have been designated as A and B.
Antibodies against antigens A and B begin to build up in the blood plasma shortly after birth. A person
normally produces antibodies (agglutinins) against those antigens that are not present on his/her erythrocytes
but does not produce antibodies against those antigens that are present on his/her erythrocytes.
• A person who is blood type A will have A antigens on the surface of her/his RBCs and will have
antibodies against B antigens (anti-B antibodies). See picture below.
• A person with blood type B will have B antigens on the surface of her/his RBCs and will have antibodies
against antigen A (anti-A antibodies).
• A person with blood type O will have neither A nor B antigens on the surface of her/his RBCs and has
BOTH anti-A and anti-B antibodies.
• A person with blood type AB will have both A and B antigens on the surface of her/his RBCs and has
neither anti-A nor anti-B antibodies.
The individual’s blood type is based on the antigens (not the antibodies) he/she has. The four blood groups
are known as types A, B, AB, and O. Blood type O, characterized by an absence of A and B agglutinogens, is
the most common in the United States (45% of the population). Type A is the next in frequency, found in 39%
of the population. The incidences of types B and AB are 12% and 4%, respectively.

Business Intelligence Case
Project Background
Mell Industries is a national manufacturing firm that specializes in textiles based out of
Chicago. Starting out as a small factory in Warrenville, Illinois, the firm experienced a period of steady
growth over the past twenty-four years. Steadily opening new warehouses and factories in the
surrounding areas in Michigan and Indianapolis until eventually moving their base of operations to
Chicago. Due to this expansion, Mell Industries is at the height of its production and hopes to avoid any
interferences or deceleration of growth.
In recent years, the firm has been under heavy media scrutiny for supposedly compensating its
female staff unfairly lower compared to male counterparts. This was initiated when a disgruntled
employee leaked the company payroll allegedly showcasing an unjust gap of income between the
female employee and her male counterpart. This type of gender pay gap is highly criticized and as a
precaution, Mell Industries has hired Cal Poly Pomona to conduct research to determine the validity of
these claims. Mell Industries has provided Cal Poly Pomona with a data set of a sample population of
747 employees. Mell Industries has also offered Cal Poly Pomona compensation for any promising
information gathered. Mell Industries may use information gathered from this project in future
employee compensation decisions.
The initial dataset has been given to you in the form of an excel spreadsheet titled
Case_dataset.xlsx consisting of 12 columns labeled:
● Column A - Employee ID
● Column B - Gender
● Column C - Date of Birth
● Column D - Date of Hire
● Column E - Termination Date
● Column F - Occupation
● Column G - Salary
● Column H to L - Employee Evaluation Metrics
In addition, Mell Industries provided the latest annual employee performance review evaluation
results rating each employee in various performance categories. They have turned over this information
separately and as a consultant, it is your task to provide Mell Industries with the most accurate and
relevant information in a digestible form. Furthermore, using excel skills learned during the course, you
will manipulate and analyze the data set in order to make appropriate managerial decisions. You will
utilize excel functions highlighted in this project as well as a pivot table and chart to form a decision
support system in order to answer the critical thinking questions.
Project Objective
The purpose of this project is to perform a methodical data analysis to assist the company make
an informed decision. This could also serve as a basis for implementing critical adjustments to certain
business aspects if necessary. Illustrate the business process by condensing a large set of data, to
present relevant information with data visualization. We will be utilizing Microsoft Excel 2016 to
complete this project.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

The Lottery
by Shirley Jackson
Full Text below
The Lottery" is a short story first published in 1948 in the
magazine The New Yorker.
3. When first published, it received an incredibly negative
response from readers. This
controversial story was banned in America and became one of
the most banned books
in schools and libraries. Over time, it has become a classic
American story.
The reader is taken into a narrative journey which finds the
traditions and values of
small town America twisted into a sort of barbaric violence.
You may be surprised to
realize that the town's "lottery" is not at all what you imagine it
to be…
The morning of June 27th was clear and sunny, with the fresh
warmth of a full-
summer day; the flowers were blossoming profusely and the
grass was richly green.
The people of the village began to gather in the square, between
the post office and
the bank, around ten o'clock; in some towns there were so many
people that the
lottery took two days and had to be started on June 2th. but in
this village, where there
were only about three hundred people, the whole lottery took
less than two hours, so it
4. could begin at ten o'clock in the morning and still be through in
time to allow the
villagers to get home for noon dinner.
The children assembled first, of course. School was recently
over for the summer, and
the feeling of liberty sat uneasily on most of them; they tended
to gather together
quietly for a while before they broke into boisterous play. and
their talk was still of
the classroom and the teacher, of books and reprimands. Bobby
Martin had already
stuffed his pockets full of stones, and the other boys soon
followed his example,
selecting the smoothest and roundest stones; Bobby and Harry
Jones and Dickie
Delacroix- the villagers pronounced this name "Dellacroy"-
eventually made a great
pile of stones in one corner of the square and guarded it against
the raids of the other
boys.
The girls stood aside, talking among themselves, looking over
their shoulders at the
5. boys. and the very small children rolled in the dust or clung to
the hands of their older
brothers or sisters.
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.
6. The lottery was conducted - as were the square dances, the teen
club, the Halloween
program - by Mr. Summers, who had time and energy to devote
to civic activities. He
was a round-faced, jovial man and he ran the coal business, and
people were sorry for
him. because he had no children and his wife was a scold. When
he arrived in the
square, carrying the black wooden box, there was a murmur of
conversation among
the villagers, and he waved and called. "Little late today,
folks." The postmaster, Mr.
Graves, followed him, carrying a three-legged stool, and the
stool was put in the
center of the square and Mr. Summers set the black box down
on it. The villagers kept
their distance, leaving a space between themselves and the
stool. and when Mr.
Summers said, "Some of you fellows want to give me a hand?"
there was a hesitation
before two men. Mr. Martin and his oldest son, Baxter. came
forward to hold the box
steady on the stool while Mr. Summers stirred up the papers
inside it.
7. The original paraphernalia for the lottery had been lost long
ago, and the black box
now resting on the stool had been put into use even before Old
Man Warner, the
oldest man in town, was born. Mr. Summers spoke frequently to
the villagers about
making a new box, but no one liked to upset even as much
tradition as was
represented by the black box. There was a story that the present
box had been made
with some pieces of the box that had preceded it, the one that
had been constructed
when the first people settled down to make a village here. Every
year, after the lottery,
Mr. Summers began talking again about a new box, but every
year the subject was
allowed to fade off without anything's being done. The black
box grew shabbier each
year: by now it was no longer completely black but splintered
badly along one side to
show the original wood color, and in some places faded or
stained.
Mr. Martin and his oldest son, Baxter, held the black box
securely on the stool until
8. Mr. Summers had stirred the papers thoroughly with his hand.
Because so much of the
ritual had been forgotten or discarded, Mr. Summers had been
successful in having
slips of paper substituted for the chips of wood that had been
used for generations.
Chips of wood, Mr. Summers had argued. had been all very well
when the village was
tiny, but now that the population was more than three hundred
and likely to keep on
growing, it was necessary to use something that would fit more
easily into he black
box. The night before the lottery, Mr. Summers and Mr. Graves
made up the slips of
paper and put them in the box, and it was then taken to the safe
of Mr. Summers' coal
company and locked up until Mr. Summers was ready to take it
to the square next
morning. The rest of the year, the box was put way, sometimes
one place, sometimes
another; it had spent one year in Mr. Graves's barn and another
year underfoot in the
post office. and sometimes it was set on a shelf in the Martin
grocery and left there.
9. There was a great deal of fussing to be done before Mr.
Summers declared the lottery
open. There were the lists to make up - of heads of families,
heads of households in
each family, members of each household in each family. There
was the proper
swearing - in of Mr. Summers by the postmaster, as the official
of the lottery; at one
time, some people remembered, there had been a recital of some
sort, performed by
the official of the lottery, a perfunctory tuneless chant that had
been rattled off duly
each year; some people believed that the official of the lottery
used to stand just so
when he said or sang it, others believed that he was supposed to
walk among the
people, but years and years ago this part of the ritual had been
allowed to lapse. There
had been also a ritual salute which the official of the lottery had
had to use in
addressing each person who came up to draw from the box, but
this also had changed
10. with time, until now it was felt necessary only for the official to
speak to each person
approaching. Mr. Summers was very good at all this, in his
clean white shirt and blue
jeans, with one hand resting carelessly on the black box. He
seemed very proper and
important as he talked interminably to Mr. Graves and the
Martins.
Just as Mr. Summers finally left off talking and turned to the
assembled villagers,
Mrs. Hutchinson came hurriedly along the path to the square,
her sweater thrown over
her shoulders, and slid into place in the back of the crowd.
"Clean forgot what day it
was," she said to Mrs. Delacroix, who stood next to her, and
they both laughed softly.
"Thought my old man was out back stacking wood," Mrs.
Hutchinson went on. "and
then I looked out the window and the kids was gone, and then I
remembered it was
the twenty-seventh and came a-running." She dried her hands on
her apron, and Mrs.
Delacroix said, "You're in time, though. They're still talking
away up there."
11. Mrs. Hutchinson craned her neck to see through the crowd and
found her husband and
children standing near the front. She tapped Mrs. Delacroix on
the arm as a farewell
and began to make her way through the crowd. The people
separated good-humoredly
to let her through: two or three people said. in voices just loud
enough to be heard
across the crowd, "Here comes your, Missus, Hutchinson," and
"Bill, she made it after
all." Mrs. Hutchinson reached her husband, and Mr. Summers,
who had been waiting,
said cheerfully. "Thought we were going to have to get on
without you, Tessie." Mrs.
Hutchinson said. grinning, "Wouldn't have me leave m'dishes in
the sink, now, would
you. Joe?," and soft laughter ran through the crowd as the
people stirred back into
position after Mrs. Hutchinson's arrival.
"Well, now." Mr. Summers said soberly, "guess we better get
started, get this over
with, so's we can go back to work. Anybody ain't here?"
"Dunbar." several people said. "Dunbar. Dunbar."
12. Mr. Summers consulted his list. "Clyde Dunbar." he said.
"That's right. He's broke his
leg, hasn't he? Who's drawing for him?"
"Me. I guess," a woman said. and Mr. Summers turned to look
at her. "Wife draws for
her husband." Mr. Summers said. "Don't you have a grown boy
to do it for you,
Janey?" Although Mr. Summers and everyone else in the village
knew the answer
perfectly well, it was the business of the official of the lottery
to ask such questions
formally. Mr. Summers waited with an expression of polite
interest while Mrs.
Dunbar answered.
"Horace's not but sixteen vet." Mrs. Dunbar said regretfully.
"Guess I gotta fill in for
the old man this year."
"Right." Sr. Summers said. He made a note on the list he was
holding. Then he asked,
"Watson boy drawing this year?"
A tall boy in the crowd raised his hand. "Here," he said. "I m
drawing for my mother
and me." He blinked his eyes nervously and ducked his head as
13. several voices in the
crowd said thin#s like "Good fellow, lack." and "Glad to see
your mother's got a man
to do it."
"Well," Mr. Summers said, "guess that's everyone. Old Man
Warner make it?"
"Here," a voice said. and Mr. Summers nodded.
A sudden hush fell on the crowd as Mr. Summers cleared his
throat and looked at the
list. "All ready?" he called. "Now, I'll read the names - heads of
families first - and the
men come up and take a paper out of the box. Keep the paper
folded in your hand
without looking at it until everyone has had a turn. Everything
clear?"
The people had done it so many times that they only half
listened to the directions:
most of them were quiet. wetting their lips. not looking around.
Then Mr. Summers
raised one hand high and said, "Adams." A man disengaged
himself from the crowd
and came forward. "Hi. Steve." Mr. Summers said. and Mr.
14. Adams said. "Hi. Joe."
They grinned at one another humorlessly and nervously. Then
Mr. Adams reached
into the black box and took out a folded paper. He held it firmly
by one corner as he
turned and went hastily back to his place in the crowd. where he
stood a little apart
from his family. not looking down at his hand.
"Allen." Mr. Summers said. "Anderson…. Bentham."
"Seems like there's no time at all between lotteries any more."
Mrs. Delacroix said to
Mrs. Graves in the back row.
"Seems like we got through with the last one only last week."
"Time sure goes fast.- Mrs. Graves said.
"Clark…. Delacroix"
"There goes my old man." Mrs. Delacroix said. She held her
breath while her husband
went forward.
"Dunbar," Mr. Summers said, and Mrs. Dunbar went steadily to
the box while one of
the women said. "Go on. Janey," and another said, "There she
goes."
15. "We're next." Mrs. Graves said. She watched while Mr. Graves
came around from the
side of the box, greeted Mr. Summers gravely and selected a
slip of paper from the
box. By now, all through the crowd there were men holding the
small folded papers in
their large hand. turning them over and over nervously Mrs.
Dunbar and her two sons
stood together, Mrs. Dunbar holding the slip of paper.
"Harburt…. Hutchinson."
"Get up there, Bill," Mrs. Hutchinson said. and the people near
her laughed.
"Jones."
"They do say," Mr. Adams said to Old Man Warner, who stood
next to him, "that over
in the north village they're talking of giving up the lottery."
Old Man Warner snorted. "Pack of crazy fools," he said.
"Listening to the young
folks, nothing's good enough for them. Next thing you know,
they'll be wanting to go
back to living in caves, nobody work any more, live hat way for
16. a while. Used to be a
saying about 'Lottery in June, corn be heavy soon.' First thing
you know, we'd all be
eating stewed chickweed and acorns. There's always been a
lottery," he added
petulantly. "Bad enough to see young Joe Summers up there
joking with everybody."
"Some places have already quit lotteries." Mrs. Adams said.
"Nothing but trouble in that," Old Man Warner said stoutly.
"Pack of young fools."
"Martin." And Bobby Martin watched his father go forward.
"Overdyke…. Percy."
"I wish they'd hurry," Mrs. Dunbar said to her older son. "I wish
they'd hurry."
"They're almost through," her son said.
"You get ready to run tell Dad," Mrs. Dunbar said.
Mr. Summers called his own name and then stepped forward
precisely and selected a
slip from the box. Then he called, "Warner."
"Seventy-seventh year I been in the lottery," Old Man Warner
said as he went through
the crowd. "Seventy-seventh time."
17. "Watson" The tall boy came awkwardly through the crowd.
Someone said, "Don't be
nervous, Jack," and Mr. Summers said, "Take your time, son."
"Zanini."
After that, there was a long pause, a breathless pause, until Mr.
Summers. holding his
slip of paper in the air, said, "All right, fellows." For a minute,
no one moved, and
then all the slips of paper were opened. Suddenly, all the
women began to speak at
once, saving. "Who is it?," "Who's got it?," "Is it the Dunbars?,"
"Is it the Watsons?"
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.
18. 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.
"I guess not, Joe." Bill Hutchinson said regretfully. "My
daughter draws with her
husband's family; that's only fair. And I've got no other family
except the kids."
"Then, as far as drawing for families is concerned, it's you," Mr.
19. Summers said in
explanation, "and as far as drawing for households is concerned,
that's you, too.
Right?"
"Right," Bill Hutchinson said.
"How many kids, Bill?" Mr. Summers asked formally.
"Three," Bill Hutchinson said.
"There's Bill, Jr., and Nancy, and little Dave. And Tessie and
me."
"All right, then," Mr. Summers said. "Harry, you got their
tickets back?"
Mr. Graves nodded and held up the slips of paper. "Put them in
the box, then," Mr.
Summers directed. "Take Bill's and put it in."
"I think we ought to start over," Mrs. Hutchinson said, as
quietly as she could. "I tell
you it wasn't fair. You didn't give him time enough to choose.
Everybody saw that."
Mr. Graves had selected the five slips and put them in the box.
and he dropped all the
papers but those onto the ground. where the breeze caught them
and lifted them off.
20. "Listen, everybody," Mrs. Hutchinson was saying to the people
around her.
"Ready, Bill?" Mr. Summers asked. and Bill Hutchinson, with
one quick glance
around at his wife and children. nodded.
"Remember," Mr. Summers said. "take the slips and keep them
folded until each
person has taken one. Harry, you help little Dave." Mr. Graves
took the hand of the
little boy, who came willingly with him up to the box. "Take a
paper out of the box,
Davy." Mr. Summers said. Davy put his hand into the box and
laughed. "Take just
one paper." Mr. Summers said. "Harry, you hold it for him." Mr.
Graves took the
child's hand and removed the folded paper from the tight fist
and held it while little
Dave stood next to him and looked up at him wonderingly.
"Nancy next," Mr. Summers said. Nancy was twelve, and her
school friends breathed
heavily as she went forward switching her skirt, and took a slip
daintily from the box
21. "Bill, Jr.," Mr. Summers said, and Billy, his face red and his
feet overlarge, near
knocked the box over as he got a paper out. "Tessie," Mr.
Summers said. She
hesitated for a minute, looking around defiantly. and then set
her lips and went up to
the box. She snatched a paper out and held it behind her.
"Bill," Mr. Summers said, and Bill Hutchinson reached into the
box and felt around,
bringing his hand out at last with the slip of paper in it.
The crowd was quiet. A girl whispered, "I hope it's not Nancy,"
and the sound of the
whisper reached the edges of the crowd.
|"It's not the way it used to be." Old Man Warner said clearly.
"People ain't the way
they used to be."
"All right," Mr. Summers said. "Open the papers. Harry, you
open little Dave's."
Mr. Graves opened the slip of paper and there was a general
sigh through the crowd
as he held it up and everyone could see that it was blank. Nancy
and Bill. Jr.. opened
theirs at the same time. and both beamed and laughed. turning
22. around to the crowd
and holding their slips of paper above their heads.
"Tessie," Mr. Summers said. There was a pause, and then Mr.
Summers looked at Bill
Hutchinson, and Bill unfolded his paper and showed it. It was
blank.
"It's Tessie," Mr. Summers said, and his voice was hushed.
"Show us her paper. Bill."
Bill Hutchinson went over to his wife and forced the slip of
paper out of her hand. It
had a black spot on it, the black spot Mr. Summers had made
the night before with the
heavy pencil in the coal company office. Bill Hutchinson held it
up, and there was a
stir in the crowd.
"All right, folks." Mr. Summers said. "Let's finish quickly."
Although the villagers had forgotten the ritual and lost the
original black box, they
still remembered to use stones. The pile of stones the boys had
made earlier was
ready; there were stones on the ground with the blowing scraps
of paper that had
come out of the box Delacroix selected a stone so large she had
23. to pick it up with both
hands and turned to Mrs. Dunbar. "Come on," she said. "Hurry
up."
Mr. Dunbar had small stones in both hands, and she said,
gasping for breath. "I can't
run at all. You'll have to go ahead and I'll catch up with you."
The children had stones already. And someone gave little Davy
Hutchinson few
pebbles.
Tessie Hutchinson was in the center of a cleared space by now,
and she held her
hands out desperately as the villagers moved in on her. "It isn't
fair," she said. A stone
hit her on the side of the head. Old Man Warner was saying,
"Come on, come on,
everyone." Steve Adams was in the front of the crowd of
villagers, with Mrs. Graves
beside him.
"It isn't fair, it isn't right," Mrs. Hutchinson screamed, and then
they were upon her.
Understanding the Text
24. Here are a few questions to see how well you have understood
what you just read.
1. Who are the leaders in control of the rest of the town?
2. Why does the author choose to avoid explaining what the
lottery tradition is
until the end of the story? Why is this an effective method of
storytelling?
3. In the third paragraph, what suggests that the lottery is a
serious event?
4. What are the rules concerning people who can’t attend the
lottery?
5. Normally, a person "wins" the lottery. In this story, however,
the word "win"
is never used. What expression is used instead?
Discussions
1. What sort of message might the author be illustrating? Think
about the
message it may be implicating in terms of democracy, religion,
or even the
fragility of family loyalties.
2. Examine the text from beginning to end and note the changes
in Tessie's
attitude over the course of the story. What kind of themes can
you take from
these changes? What themes are evident in this story?
25. 3. The setting takes place in a small, peaceful town. How does
the setting
contrast with the plot and characters? How do these elements of
the story
create interest and contradiction? How does the author fool the
reader?
4. What hints does the author give us that all is not what it
appears to be? Give
examples of "foreshadowing" which leads up to the stoning.
5.

35. het Internet is makkelijk toegankelijk. Het grote verschil tussen
de twee is dat
je bij je huisarts altijd weet dat je betrouwbare medische
informatie krijgt
tijdens de afspraak bij de dokter. Vele patiënten worden bang
bij het idee ziek
te zijn. Je huisdokter kan je vaak door meer uitleg te geven
voldoende
geruststellen of zal desnoods de juiste behandeling opstarten.
