Answer

Chinua Achebe uses foreshadowing to develop theme in Things Fall Apart in the following area;

• In chapter 1,the writer foreshadows Ikemefuna’s death

• In chapter 2, when Okonkwo returns home from Mbaino,Ikemefuna’s fate is mentioned as “sad story”

Explanation

The writer in chapter 1 foreshadows the death of Ikemefuna by calling him a ‘doomed lad” who is “ill-fated”. In chapter 2, Ikemefuna and Okonkwo return home from a place called Mbaino.Here the writer foreshadows the death/fate to befall Ikemefuna by mentioning that Ikemefuna’s “sad story” is still told to that day in Umuofia.This can give the reader the idea that a sad thing/death will happen to the person in the description, Ikemefuna.Shortly after that chapter, the writer mentions that Ikemefuna only lived with Okonkwo for three years.The readers here can infer that a tragic will occur to the person in discussion in at  least three years.The breaking of the Week of Peace foreshadows Ikemefuna’s death. All these examples indicate that the writer used foreshadowing to develop theme in Things Fall Apart

How many states have passed english-only laws limiting classroom instructions, driver’s license exams, road signs, and even heal
coldgirl [10]

In the United States, 29 states have passed English-only laws, that is, they only recognize English as an official language, this influences daily life because traffic signs, teaching in schools, and driver's licenses are only in English.

The English-only movement is a term to refer to a political community and movement that (as the name implies) is pushing the use of English as the only official language in the United States. This movement has grown because Americans do not want their identity to be overshadowed by other cultures as a result of the high arrival of immigrants of other nationalities and other languages such as:

  • Spanish
  • Japanese
  • French
  • Italian
  • Russian
  • Indian
  • Among others

In the United States 29 states recognize English as the only official language, among them are:

  • Virginia
  • Utah
  • Tennessee
  • Kansas
  • Massachusetts
  • Georgia
  • California
  • Alabama
