Final answer:
The village in Shirley Jackson's 'The Lottery' retains the ritual of the lottery where the chosen individual is stoned, even as other traditions associated with the lottery fade away.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question seems to refer to Shirley Jackson's short story “The Lottery.” In the story, the village maintains the lottery ritual, where the “winner” is stoned to death by the other villagers.
This ritual is held onto while other older traditions and formalities associated with the lottery have faded away or been forgotten over time.
The practice remains as a deadly rite carried out by the villagers, demonstrating the powerful influence of tradition and societal pressure.
