Question 10 • English Language Arts 12

Which sentence contains an example of foreshadowing?

Answer
A
I should have known how the day would turn out when I woke up to cold rain pouring down outside.
B
The wind blew in through the open window, causing the curtains to swish back and forth against the wall.
C
When he heard the news, his face lit up with a grin, and he did a little happy dance around the room.
D
As he followed the scent of cotton candy, his mouth watered in anticipation of eating the sweet treat.

Explanation

Foreshadowing gives an early hint about what will happen later. In choice A, the narrator says the rainy morning should have signaled how the day would turn out, hinting that something difficult or unpleasant is coming. The other sentences describe events or reactions without suggesting what will happen next.
