In the short story 'All Summer in a Day' by Ray Bradbury, Margot doesn't get to enjoy the rare Venusian sunshine because she is locked in a closet by her classmates due to their jealousy and exclusion.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the short story 'All Summer in a Day' by Ray Bradbury, Margot doesn't get to enjoy the rare Venusian sunshine because she is locked in a closet by her classmates.
