A) Chekhov elaborates on the idea that a desire of money can sabotage happiness in "The Lottery Ticket."

Chekhov develops this issue through the interactions between Ivan and his wife as well as their responses to the concept of money.

Anton Chekhov's The Lottery Ticket illustrates how money can negatively impact interpersonal relationships. Ivan Dmitritch, the protagonist of the narrative, is said to as a "middle class man who lives with his family." In the narrative, Masha, Ivan's wife, buys a lottery ticket and takes it home.

The main lesson from "The Lottery" is the peril of adhering to tradition or group allegiance at the expense of moral and ethical responsibility. Because it has always been done this way, everyone in the community feels justified in killing someone every year.

Answer: It creates an image for the reader

Explanation: By comparing his wife to a regular woman, it helps the reader understand and picture his wife. I took the test and got it right!

A man is about to go on a date for the first time in 20
years. Before now, he had been in a long-term relationship,
which has sadly come to an end. He just got too distracted
by work, by friends, by everything except what he needed
to focus on most. She became like a ghost around the
house, a silent presence haunting the space they lived in,
but otherwise preoccupied with her own ethereal
concerns.
He blames himself. Maybe he doesn't deserve to find love.
Maybe he isn't suited to be in a relationship. He stops just
short of stepping into the restaurant where his date is
waiting for him. Finally, he decides to call his ex to ask her
for advice. He always felt stronger with her in the picture,
though he took her for granted until now. He needs just a
little bit of that strength again.
