My View On "The Lottery"

       It begins with a peace scene:sunny morning,full-summer day,flowers blossomed profusely,the grass was richly green. An easy day which school was recently over for the summer, children gathered together for a game. The lottery was hold in a dance squre ,like a teen club, a Halloween program. Children assembled first,soon the men began to gather,and women appeared to stand by their husband.Then the conductors of the lottey---Mr.Summer ans Mr.Grave came at last.It seemed to be an important game that all the villagers of the country would have to join in. The story was ended withe the death of the winner---Mrs.Hutchinason, who was later for the lottery.You would hardly imagine that they were organized elaborately to describe an cruel story.

        In my opinion,there are some other ironic meaning of the pilots in the story.First,the name of Summer would suggest sunshine and bright but he killed Mr.Hutchinson indirectly.Mr.Grave's name indicated a death. Old man Mr.Warner and the black box can be seen as the old and punk literal tradition of the lottery.Second ,its real indication was focused on the opposite facial of the story.For one thing ,it wasn't the winner but the loser rewarded to die,then the cruel and horrible thing was based on a happy and easy scene.For another,Mrs.Huchinson was the last person who appeared with a joking saying to others"Clean forgot what day it was",and unfortunately chosen to be the winner.Last but not the least,Mrs.Hutchinson died in a summer and bright day---the most terrible thing happened under the sun.Third,it was because of the evil of the human nature but not the old tradition to keep the tragedy going again and again.For example ,the old man Mr.Warner who had seen this horrible tradition for 77 times and innovated the traditional ritual ,but he never stand out to stop this the tradition.We can seen that Mr.Warner wasn't only as old as the tradition but also as cruel as it by his words:"Although the villagers had forgotten the ritual and lost the original black box,they still remembered to use the stones."The villagers just wanted to finish the lottery quickly,but never thought of that they were killing a life who had lived with them in the same village for years,besides the wife of the husband or the mother of the children.Even Mrs.Hutchinson herself screamed to others"It isn't fair,it isn't right",maybe she thought that it was someone else should dia,who cared whether it would be her husband or one of her children.
