The following excerpt from chapter 6 of Emily Brontë's Wuthering Heights features Nelly’s description of Hindley’s wife, Frances

. Which literary technique is evident in the mention of Frances’s quick breathing and troublesome cough?
Then she began describing with hysterical emotion the effect it produced on her to see black; and started, and trembled, and, at last, fell a-weeping—and when I asked what was the matter, answered, she didn’t know; but she felt so afraid of dying!  I imagined her as little likely to die as myself.  She was rather thin, but young, and fresh-complexioned, and her eyes sparkled as bright as diamonds.  I did remark, to be sure, that mounting the stairs made her breathe very quick; that the least sudden noise set her all in a quiver, and that she coughed troublesomely sometimes: but I knew nothing of what these symptoms portended, and had no impulse to sympathise with her.

Answer:

Employs foreshadowing technique.

Explanation:

Foreshadowing is a literary resource in which the author introduces certain elements in the narrative that have to do with the events that will occur in the future. It is like a kind of warning that something will happen later. Writers use this literary technique to increase the tension of the reader and to maintain coherence and credibility in the plot and in the characters.

Write a story that ends with the statement:then I realized it was too late to cry
PolarNik [594]
The day of the funeral arrived and there I was standing before the grave stone. It read ‘MARY ROBERT WILSON’. There were lots of people here and I felt uncomfortable. I was only five years old when she died. Back then, nothing made sense. All I remembered was people dressed in black with their heads down and no sound apart from the rushing wind. The woman, Mary, was my mother. It was so long ago, and I was so young that I didn’t know how to react. I just stood there holding on to my fathers hand smiling not knowing that I would never see my mum again. Not knowing that my life was about to change and there was nothing I could about. 10 years later I recall the moment of her death, of her grave and only now... I realised it was too late to cry.
