What type of literary or device is demonstrated in this sentence from the monkeys paw.

English

eimsori [14]3 years ago
4 0

The sentence represents or demonstrates a foreshadowing (option B) in the story. Mr. White wished for 200 pounds, the monkey's paw moved (twisted) but the money didn't appear, then his son Herbert <em>bets he'll never see it.  </em>Reading further, we learn that the paw's magic leads to tragic consequences for the people who asks for wishes to it. Herbert dies in a work-related accident and his company offers his family a compensation of 200 pounds, just the amount Mr. White wished for, and the same Herbert doubted he could see: his words were a hint the author gives us of what is to come in the story.

What technique does the author use in each excerpt to<br> support her purpose?
ankoles [38]

Answer:

B). The first excerpt uses facts and statistics, and the second excerpt is told as a story.

Explanation:

The first excerpt from 'Children of the Drug Wars' <u>employs factual and statistical information that helps the author to serve her purpose of educating the readers about the impact of violence(led by wars) on children</u>. It also informs them regarding the increase in percentage of asylum claims as the violence left the children mentally distorted and it is this reason made around 58% to flee. While the second excerpt from 'Enrique's Journey' uses a narrative style to portray the hardships faced by Enrique to reconcile with his mother('jams his body, jumps off, etc.) through which the audience can connect themselves emotionally and elicit intended response. Thus, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer.
