In unit 1 English Lange Arts, I learned that there is a formal and informal way to address someone. I learned that formal and informal is very important when writing to someone because it can leave a good impression or a bad one. I have also learned that when writing formally you typically use Long sentences, do not use contractions, correct grammar, and don’t use phrases. While Informal writing uses short sentences, contractions, phrases, and has a conversation tone. Thank you for taking time to read this.

I will compare each of their themes, characters, and plot developments in which they are both similar and different. One of the strongest comparison would be that both stories deal with the subject of luck in one sense or another. The Lottery being considered a game of chance in which luck plays an important factor in being the chosen winner but Luck in the Lottery has a different twist of fate because the winner of the Lottery is actually the

Passions drive people, and the townspeople in “The Lottery” and Paul in “The Rocking-Horse Winner” are no different. Each of the members of the unnamed town has a strong passion for tradition. The original black box used for the lottery is described as being, “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” (Jackson 251). This sentence gives the reader an understanding that the lottery is an ancient tradition that has become an integral part of the town’s lifestyle.

Paul had a passion to be wealthy as a way to prove to his mother that he was lucky. From a young age, he saw that his family always wanted more money to support a better lifestyle, yet

The tiger slept that night, nestled in frayed, honey yellow roots. His sleep was that of kings.

The poem started when the tide was full, and the sea was calm, and everything seemed so quiet under the moonlight. Such good night is a perfect time for the lovers to date. So, the poet could not help but telling his lover, "Come to the window, how sweet the evening breeze is!" But then came the waves at low tide from the gravel. It gently and repeatedly chanted the beat, recalled the poet endless thoughts, turning the scenery into lyrical poetry, giving the expression with the development of the poet’s thoughts.
