The clan's reaction reveals that they believe that individual sacrifices must be made for the good of society and to guarantee strength and honor to individuals.
We can arrive at this answer because:
- The oracle states that Ikemefuna must be killed on account of Umuofiana's death.
- This must be done to create harmony in nature and ensure that locusts do not invade the region.
- Everyone sees this as an obligation that must be done for the good of all and that there is no justification for this murder not to happen.
- The oracle states that Ikemefuna's father, Okonkwo, is the one who must kill him, as this is the sacrifice he must make for the good of all.
Okonkwo feels terribly sad, but this is the role the entire clan is waiting to be played. Furthermore, failure to carry out the oracle's orders would cause Okonkwo to be seen as weak and selfish.

The phrases creating a tone of foreboding are:
- "strange blight;"
- "evil spell;"
- "mysterious maladies;"
- "shadow of death."
<em>Foreboding</em> means predicting or announcing that something bad is about to happen. Taking the answers one by one, you can see how they relate to the same ominous idea:
- a "strange blight" and "evil maladies" refer to a destructive condition which no-body can explain;
- an "evil spell" means that it is interpreted as a magical curse;
- the "shadow of death" is a metaphor meaning that death is coming to the crops or cattle (depending on the original text excerpt).

Explanation:
Brian walks to school about one mile from his home in rural Connecticut. He set up for school as usual by 6am hoping to arrive in an hour's time. Brian had walked for about 30 minutes when without warning, heavy rain began to fall. Within minutes, Brian was soaked to the skin. On reaching the railing intersection, he noticed that the railway bridge has given way during the heavy downpour. As he was about crossing, Brian sees the train coming. It took his mind seconds to register that this means a ghastly accident for the oncoming train. Without a second hesitation, Brian stood on the track, ignoring the warning whistles and started waving his shirts. Providence was on his side because the captain of the train sited him from a good distance and started applying the brake. Just a few metres from where he stood, the train halted and the accident was prevented. Brian was rewarded for his bravery .
