Question

The text says "Behind me, Nancy Bobofit mumbled to a friend, ‘Like we're going to use this in real life. Like it's going to say on our job applications, ‘Please explain why Kronos ate his kids.'" What could this show or foreshadow? *

Answer 1

Answer:

This foreshadows Percy Jackson's connection to Greek mythology.

Explanation:

The above excerpt was taken from the book "Parcy Jackson and the lightning thief" and shows the moment when Percy still doesn't know that he is Posseidon's son and is living like an ordinary boy attending a Greek mythology class, which seems uninteresting to all the students. Like Percy, the reader is still unaware of his connection to Greek mythology, but the girls' speech in the text foreshadows this news that is revealed a few minutes later.
