Paragraph one: Theme: “All Summer In A Day”
Margot is different from all the other people because she is from Earth, and came to Venus 5 years before. Margot’s “biggest crime”, is that she was born on Earth and came to Venus “ only 5 years ago” (Bradbury). Being from Earth sets her apart from everybody else since she has been able to experience the sun. The children of Venus can’t remember the last time they saw the sun because “they had been only [2] when the last sun came out” (Bradbury). The children have seen the sun once and can’t recall it, because of her differences she is not accepted by the other children. Being from Earth makes Margot different and because she is different the other kids don't accept her.

In the story “The Veldt”, the family has a nursery that can “[catch] the telepathic emanations of the children's mind” and create it (Bradbury). The children play in the nursery often and were beginning to imagine violent things. If the children thought “sun [they got] sun, giraffes - giraffes. Death and death” (Bradbury). The children were coming up with such violent things such as lions and eagles tearing apart creatures. Their father “threatened to turn the whole house off” (Bradbury).

Their father called in a psychiatrist to examine the room and he told him that they've “let the room replace [them]” and “the room is [the children's] mother and father” (Bradbury). The children have spent so much time in the room that they don't care anymore for their parents and are fantasizing about killing them and eventually, they do. In “The Veldt”, the parents let technology overtake their family, and it ends up causing their children to brutally murder …show more content…
The people of the village continue the lottery because it they believe it will give them crops, old man Warner says “lottery in June, corn be heavy soon” (Bradbury). Even though the people in the village still continue, the people in other villages have discontinued it. Mr. Adams tells old man Warner, that ”some places have already quit lotteries” (Bradbury). The people no longer know why they do the lottery anymore. The only reason that the people know is that “there has always been a lottery” (Bradbury). Only old man Warner remembers why they have the lottery, and it is because of the crops, but the other people just follow along unknowingly. The cause of winning the lottery is getting stoned, when Tessie won the lottery, all “the villagers moved in on her” (Bradbury). The villagers don’t remember why they were killing each other, but they were ready and willing to do so. Following a tradition blindly will lead people to make dangerous
