Answer:

Foreshadowing is an advance sign or warning of what is to come in the future. ... Foreshadowing is used as a literary device to tease readers about plot turns that will occur later in the story. A fortune teller might use foreshadowing, warning that a short life line is a sign of some impending disaster.

Examples of Foreshadowing: 1. A pipe is going to burst, but before it does, the author writes a scene where the family notices a small dark spot on the ceiling, but ignores it.

1. Read these lines from “The Darkling Thrush,” by Thomas Hardy.
netineya [11]

The correct answers are:

1. The correct answer is the option that reads “imagery, because the lines help the reader picture what Hardy describes”. In the lines presented above from the book “<em>The Darkling Thrush</em>” by Thomas Hardy (1900), Hardy made use of the literary device “<u>imagery</u>”. By definition, imagery means using figurative language to represent objects, actions, and ideas in a way that they appeal to our physical senses. Therefore, it helps the reader picture what the author describes. In this case, imagery helps the reader picture the description of the thrush that Hardy makes.

2. The correct answer is the option that reads “sight”. The line “<em>When frost was spectre-gray</em>” from “<em>The Darkling Thrush</em>” by Thomas Hardy (1900) is an example of <u>visual imagery</u> because it appeals to the sense of <u>sight</u> by <u>describing the colour of the frost</u> as “<em>spectre-gray</em>”.

3. The verb that agrees with the bolded subject of the sentence is “is”. The dictionary is one book that <u>is</u> in most libraries.

4. The verb that agrees with the bolded subject of the sentence is “was”. I gave directions to the tourist who <u>was</u> lost.

5. The verb that agrees with the bolded subject of the sentence is “was”. The Statue of Liberty is one of the gifts that <u>was</u> given to us by the French.
