Choice D would be the correct answer. Foreshadowing is essentially the term for literature when authors hint at events to come, and when I read choice D, it caused me to feel that there was something that the author had not told me yet, which is essentially the goal of foreshadowing. It is intended to get the reader expecting something else to happen. The other three choices, although they are statements as well, seem to be relating more to previous events as opposed to hinting at something to come. :)

In at least one hundred words, explain ostracism as a recurring theme in Achebe’s Things Fall Apart. Use evidence from the text
valina [46]

Answer:

This technique is persuasive because, in Gordimer’s essay she explains that people of color take the jobs that no white man wants and that they are not allowed in any bar, club, and etc. And that no woman is allowed either. And she does a very good job in explaining what people of color and women went through at the time and how they couldn’t do what white man could. A white man could do jobs that wouldn’t allow any woman or colored person to do. A white man could vote and be seen in a bar and have more freedom and rights than a colored person and a woman could have. And a white man could be in the military or get paid more than a colored person or woman. A black man could vote but, it wouldn’t count and women were not allowed to vote.
