The correct answer is option A. Foreshadowing is a literary technique writers use in order to give a hint of what is to come later in the story. Usually, foreshadowing appears at the beginning of the chapter or of the story. There are many ways of creating foreshadowing. In fiction, this technique is used to create an atmosphere of suspense.

Examples:

  • "Suddenly, a cool breeze started blowing and made a windy night". (foreshadows thunderstorm)
  • "The battle between good and evil started" (foreshadows danger).
