Question

mrs. hutchinson tries to convince the townspeople that...
a the lottery should be stopped.
b her husband wasnt given a fair chance.
c her husband shouldnt be participating.
d her husband took the wrong piece of paper

Explanation:

Looking at the text, Tessie (Mrs. Hutchinson) first shouts, "You didn't give him time enough to take any paper he wanted. I saw you. It wasn't fair!" and later repeats, "I tell you it wasn't fair. You didn't give him time enough to choose. Everybody saw that." This directly shows she is arguing her husband was not given a fair chance in the lottery.

Answer:

B. her husband wasn't given a fair chance.
