Read the excerpt from Act II, scene v of Romeo and Juliet.
RoseWind [281]

The effects which the foreshadowing in Friar Laurence’s warning to Romeo have are:

  • A. It keeps the audience engaged in the plot by suggesting more potential conflict in the story.
  • C. It creates suspense as the reader wonders why Friar Laurence would utter this warning.
  • E. It provides a clue that something tragic will happen to the lovers later as the story progresses.

<h3>What is Foreshadowing?</h3>

This refers to the use of hints and clues to give an idea about what would happen in the future in a story.

Hence, we can see that from the complete question, there is the narration of the potential conflict that is suggested based on the warnings of Friar Laurence and the other effects of foreshadowing are shown in options A, C and E.
