In the opening chapters of "The Lottery," Shirley Jackson writes with a very casual, bright, and cheery tone. What effect does this narrative style have on the reader at the beginning of the story?

The effect the narrative style have on the reader is that it's just a calm and a normal day. It also shows that it might be a happy story.
