Which excerpt from “The Scarlet Ibis” most foreshadows that the narrator will feel regret for something he has done to Doodle? B

ut sometimes (like right now), as I sit in the cool, green-draped parlor, the grindstone begins to turn, and time with all its changes is ground away—and I remember Doodle. Doodle was my brother and he was going to cling to me forever, no matter what I did, so I dragged him across the burning cotton field to share with him the only beauty I knew, Old Woman Swamp. There is within me (and with sadness I have watched it in others) a knot of cruelty borne by the stream of love, much as our blood sometimes bears the seed of our destruction, and at times I was mean to Doodle. Once I had succeeded in teaching Doodle to walk, I began to believe in my own infallibility and I prepared a terrific development program for him, unknown to Mama and Daddy, of course.

The correct answer, in my opinion, is C. <span>There is within me (and with sadness I have watched it in others) a knot of cruelty borne by the stream of love, much as our blood sometimes bears the seed of our destruction, and at times I was mean to Doodle.

The narrator recalls his own cruelty, but also hints that this cruelty (and its consequences) will haunt him forever. At this point, we anticipate that he is going to do something bad to Doodle, even though the narrator softens this anticipation by telling us that it used to happen "at times". Also, the simile "much as our blood sometimes bears the seed of our destruction" tells us that the narrator will never break free from this regret.

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

Fearful and mistrusting

Explanation:

The colonists are expressing that they think the natives of the land are savages; describing their thoughts about their behavior. Because they use negative words, it means they dislike the natives' culture. They show their disgust that the King would just leave them in a place they do not know, full of  "savages", and without instructions.

If I have an assignment due by January 3rd, can I still work on it on January 3rd or will it not let me work on it anymore when
Liono4ka [1.6K]
Since you provided a time, I am taking a guess that it's online and the teacher or professor should usually give you a time that officially marks when it's due on January 3rd. If not, you could turn it in on January 3rd anytime, but not after 12:00 a.m. which would make it January 4th. I hope this makes since.
