Answer:

1. In paragraph 80, the text says "It will boil the blood out of you in no time.” This foreshadows that Horrocks is scheming to kill Raut.

2.In paragraph 70, the text says "But you shall see. Boiling water...” This foreshadows that Horrocks is planning to push Raut into boiling water, which will kill him.

3.In paragraph 66, the text states that "...Horrocks actually held him back in the way of the train? Had he just been within an ace of being murdered?" This foreshadows that Mr. Horrocks is trying to kill Raut, but he has failed and will most likely attempt to again.

Answer:

The author use foreshadowing to build suspense in the story by signaling the readers of the antagonist's, Mr. Horrocks, intentions to kill Mr. Raut. According to the text, it states, "Was he deluding himself with his own fancies, or had Horrocks actually held him back in the way of the train? Had he just been within an ace of being murdered?". This tells the readers that the author was trying to convey that Mr. Horrocks planned to kill Mr. Raut, however his first attempt failed. This builds up tension and suspense to the story for the readers does not know what Mr. Horrock's next attempt be.

Another example, "But all the same, what on earth did Horrocks mean about “white as death” and “red as sin?” Coincidence, perhaps?". This tells the readers that the author was trying to emphasize what Mr. Horrocks said. This also foreshadows the death of Mr. Raut and the sin that Mr. Horrocks will soon to commit. As the story progresses, Mr. Raut finally realizes the intentions of Mr. Horrocks craving to kill him. Based on what I read, " “Three hundred centigrade, mind!” said Horrocks. “It will boil the blood out of you in no time.” “Eigh?” said Raut, and turned.". This tells the readers that Mr. Horrocks was making his second attempt to kill Mr. Raut. The phrase, "It will boil the blood out of you in no time", foreshadows the plan to burn Mr. Raut to death.

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

                                                                               Universal Model School,

                                                                               90 Aba Owerri Road,

                                                                               Aba.

                                                                               March 12, 2021.

The Chairman,

Osisioma Ngwa Local Government Area,

Aba.

       Sir,

PETITION AGAINST THE PLANNED CLOSURE OF OSISIOMA ORPHANAGE HOME

     It has come to my knowledge that Osisioma Ngwa Local Government Area intends to close down the Osisioman  Orphanage Home due to scarcity of funds to continue the smooth running of the orphanage home.

    Sir, I wish to remind you that the well-being of the people is the primary responsibility of government. Osisioma Ngwa Local Government Area has the highest number of homeless children and orphans in Abia State. Closure of this orphanage implies that these children will be sent out to the street without anyone to carter for them.

    The danger of having such massive number of children out on the streets is that they may be turned into criminals by unscrupulous elements in society who seek to exploit the vulnerability of this group of people to achieve their selfish ends.

    We are already overwhelmed by the current security challenges in this part of the state, we definitely do not want to create more problems for ourselves by churning out potential hoodlums from this orphanage home.

     I beg you sir to rescind your earlier decision and allow the orphanage home to continue in the interest of common good.

     Thanks in anticipation of your positive response.

                                                                                             Yours Faithfully,

                                                                                             Jude Njoku
