The excerpt that is an example of foreshadowing is the first option provided.

"Weak as the doe who beds down her fawns / in the mighty lion's den..."

Foreshadowing is the literary device which gives an advance hint of what will happen later on in the story. Foreshadowing tends to be found at the beginning of a story, or a chapter, and it helps the reader develop expectations about the upcoming events.

Foreshadowing can be implemented in many different ways such as: character dialogues, plot events, and changes in setting. Even the title of a work or a chapter can be a foreshadowing. Foreshadowing leads to an atmosphere of suspense in a story, so that the readers are attracted and want to know more.

"The earth does not belong to man, man belongs ot the earth. All things are connected like the blood that unites us all. man did
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

The earth is a vast ecosystem that was created by natural forces. Through mankind's touch this has drastically changed. A sort of butterfly effect occurs whenever man intervenes with nature. For example, building a dam stops water flow, dries up the river bed, and forces native animals to relocate or die. Everything that mankind has done to the earth hurts the natural course of how nature grows and flows. By doing this the earth has become poisoned, and therefore mankind is poisoning his home and himself.

Which statement best summarizes "Save the Coral Reefs”?
vazorg [7]
I think the correct answer would be C. The best summary of the text "Save the Coral Reefs" would be

Construction along the coasts, overfishing, and bleaching have seriously damaged the world’s coral reefs. Since reefs are a very important part of the ocean’s ecosystem, their destruction has a devastating environmental impact, and we must work to protect them. 
Coral reefs are known to be very fragile which are made of limestone. People who would build coastal regions and those who overfish should be stopped as these activities ruin and damage the corals which would ruin the habitat of the fishes and other aquatic organisms.
