Read the excerpt from "Federigo’s Falcon" by Giovanni Boccaccio. Which phrase shows that Federigo squandered his wealth?
There was once in Florence a young man named Federigo, the son of Messer Filippo Alberighi, renowned above all other men in Tuscany for his prowess in arms and for his courtliness. As often happens to most gentlemen, he fell in love with a lady named Monna Giovanna, in her day considered to be one of the most beautiful and one of the most charming women that ever there was in Florence; and in order to win her love, he participated in jousts and tournaments, organized and gave feasts, and spent his money without restraint; but she, no less virtuous than beautiful, cared little for these things done on her behalf, nor did she care for him who did them. Now, as Federigo was spending far beyond his means and was taking nothing in, as easily happens he lost his wealth and became poor, with nothing but his little farm to his name (from whose revenues he lived very meagerly) and one falcon which was among the best in the world.

Answer:
The scarlet ibis shares many characteristics with Doodle, and it dies.
Aunt Nicey says, "Dead birds is bad luck," suggesting that now something bad will happen.
Explanation:
<em>The Scarlet Ibis</em> is a short story written by James Hurst. It tells about an ill boy nicknamed Doodle, whose brother wants to teach him how to do all things a regular boy can do: run, jump, swim, etc. One day, a sick scarlet ibis appears in his family's garden. When it died, Doodle buried it, while the rest of his family laughed. Soon after, during Doodle's rowing training, his brother got frustrated with the fact Doodle couldn't master the skills he wanted to teach him and left him in a rainstorm. He soon returned only to find Doodle lying on the ground with blood flowing out of his mouth, staining his throat and shirt red. That is how Doodle died.
Foreshadowing is a literary device in which a writer gives hints about what is going to happen later in a story. Details that tell us that Doodle is going to die are that he and the scarlet ibis that died share many characteristics, and Aunt Nicey saying that dead birds are bad luck. The rest of the options do nothing to foreshadow Doodle's death.
