Step-by-step explanation:
In Shirley Jackson's short story 'The Lottery', the character Tessie Hutchinson does not attempt to give the marked paper to her son. When Tessie Hutchinson draws the marked paper, which signifies she has been selected for the lottery's brutal outcome, there is no mention in the text of her trying to pass this paper to anyone else, including her son.
Instead, Tessie protests about the fairness of the drawing process and her being picked. Her attempt to argue for a redraw and the insistence that her daughter take part in the draw are shown as desperate attempts to save herself, but at no point does she try to give her marked paper to her son. The correct answer to the student's question is False.
