The Lottery Story - Band

1) The black dot, because it makes the reader ask questions like "what is the black dot? is it something good or bad?"

2)I thought Ms Hutchinsen was going to get kicked out of the village, because she said "it isn't fair", and also in the beginning of the story, it said that there are only 300 people in the village

3)I was really curious what was going to happen, and why was Ms. Hutchinsen shocked

4)I really wanted to know what was inside the paper and I knew that it was the end of the story, because the teachers told us. I was tempted to open it before it was 5:00pm, but I didn't because it was part of the assignment

5) Black and white are 2 contrasting colours, so I thought it was something important in the story

6)I was shocked, because I didn't think that they will stone her to death. I was sort of confused, because why would a village want to kill someone?

7)My prediction was sort of correct. I knew that the black dot was something bad, because when they saw the black dot, the mood suddenly became creepy and silent

8)It would have helped if we the author gave us more details in the story, like more background information of the village

9) The author left these voids in the story, because maybe she or he wanted to create more mood and tension, and catch the reader's attention

10)a. There was no title, so I had no idea what the story was going to be about.
b. It made me curious about what was going to happen at the end
c. It made me try to guess all the possible endings
d. I wanted to open it, because I wanted to know how the author ended the story
e. It made me more curious about the ending
f.
