What is Shirley pointing out when Tessie keeps saying that "it wasn't fair"?Multiple Choice (please choose): The author seems to be pointing out...

The answer that closest completes the sentence is choice
A: Fairness is meaningless.

The reason for this is because
Tessie is the first person in the village that actually questions the fairness and
purpose of the celebration of the lottery. As a former active participant herself, we
can assume that she never wondered about it until the day when her turn comes. Moreover,
since she does not get an answer and gets stoned to death by her fellow villagers, it
means clearly that to the people of her community fairness is completely
meaningless.

Choice B- nothing is fair in life is a general
statement that would apply to anything and not directly to the main idea of the story.
This story is about ONE specific event not being fair for a certain
population.

Choices C and D do not have anything to do with
the story. Choice C states that fairness is most important to the victims, which just
does not make sense and the last choice that says that Victims cannot be bad "sports"
does not make sense either because victims do not consent to whatever is done to
them.
