The story takes place in a small town. There is only few people but they have a old culture, even older than most of the townspeople, which is the lottery. Everyone attaches great importance to this lottery. Maybe it will bring huge rewards to the winners. But when Mr. Dunbar was absent, Mr. Summers asked to help Mr. Dunbar participate. Mandatory participation seems unreasonable for a lottery. When Tessie became the ultimate “winner”, the reason behind it was revealed. The final “reward” is just the stones people throw at her.

I have always been bad at writing, and coupled with my language problems, I often avoid writing in education. I don’t want to show this shortcoming of mine, nor do I want to correct it. Until I failed an English class in 10th grade. I was very scared at the time. I hate summer school and losing credit. So I decided to work hard, at least not to fail. Although I am not good at writing until now, I still appreciate my hard work. It’s very difficult, but let my shortcomings no longer drag me down
The most important turning point in my education is my migrant. I came to New York from China. Everything looks strange to me. I feel confuse for everything. I was so shy and nervous on my first day in school. I had many friends before that, and after I emigrated, I always felt lonely. This huge gap makes me unable to adapt. High schools in China will bring unimaginable pressure to students, so I have always been very afraid of the arrival of high schools. But when I got through that period. I just felt that learning is easier than ever, I don’t feel pressure, every day is very relaxing. I found a better education for me. A relaxed life makes me better in more aspects, not just studying
