Answer:
A. The fakir's prediction that anyone who interferes with fate will be sorry.
Explanation:
W. W. Jacobs' short story <em>"The Monkey's Paw"</em> revolves around the theme of superstitious beliefs emanating from an ancient relic called <em>"the paw"</em> from India. This piece of the animal body seemed to have the ability to grant any wish that its owner might have, much like the fairy-tale story of Aladdin and the genie in the lamp.
Foreshadowing provides a sense of knowing something before it happens. This allows a writer to provide hints that will be about what will happen in the coming scenes. And in this story, foreshadowing is clearly seen in the Sergeant-Major's words when he mentions about the fakir's warning of how <em>"fate ruled people's lives, and that those who interfered with it did so to their sorrow"</em>. This seems to be true, for the first owner's third wish was death and that was how the 'thing' came to be in the possession of the Sergeant-Major. And this warning <em><u>foreshadows how Herbert White will wish for £200 which will lead to the unfortunate death of his son and the said amount being given as compensation.
</u></em>
I don't understand what the question is
The long awaited-dream-vacation was no fun at all, much to my disappointment. in fact, it was down-right horrible! We decided to aim for as much adventure as possible and went to Fiji. Fiji is a collection of hundreds of islands in the Pacific Ocean, known for their renown beauty. My family and I had planned to relax on the beaches and enjoy the warm weather everyday. We also hoped to enjoy the beautiful scenery under the ocean while we were there. The water is usually warm, soothing and inviting. Unfortunately, the weather did not cooperate, and dashed our dreams. It rained and poured freezing rain all day, and everyday. A strong wind lashed at everything in its path, and created a soggy scene. With nothing to do, we were miserable the whole time we were in Fiji. My family and I were more that relieved to go back home.
