Read the sentence from "The Lottery."

The lottery was conducted - as were the square dances, the teen-age club, the Halloween program - by Mr. Summers, who had time and energy to devote to civic activities.

What is most ironic about this sentence?

-that Mr. Summers has time to devote to community events

-that these events take a considerable amount of time to prepare

-that the village has a teen club

-that the lottery is thought of as a civic activity

    The last one.

    The lottery is not a civic activity. Civic activities build communities as a whole, but lotteries involove one person using luck to build himself up rather than engaging in character-improving civic activities like square dance.
