All Summer In a Day V.S. The Lottery

The similarity between "All summer in a day" and "The Lottery" is dark side among people in society.For example, in"All summer in a day", the children treat the girl(Margot) badly because she is the only person come from the Earth, have experience about the Sun and know how beautiful the Sun is. In the same way, in "The Lottery" people in the village have the wrong belief about sacrify the winner of the lottery in order to have a good harvest in every summer. Even though it is their tradition every year, they need to think that one day they will be the person is killed by the others in village. In contrast to the similarity, the difference between those stories is that" All Summer in a day" is mentioned about the hope, and" The Lottery" is about the message to the audience that beliefs still go wrong nowadays or long time ago.
