Read the excerpt from “the scarlet ibis.” 1 it’s strange that all this is still so clear to me, now that the summer has long since fled and time has had its way. 2 a grindstone stands where the bleeding tree stood, just outside the kitchen door, and now if an oriole sings in the elm, its song seems to die up in the leaves, a silvery dust. 3 the flower garden is prim, the house a gleaming white, and the pale fence across the yard stands straight and spruce. 4 but sometimes (like right now), as i sit in the cool, green-draped parlor, the grindstone begins to turn, and time with all its changes is ground away—and i remember doodle. which sentence from the excerpt is foreshadowing and why? sentence 1 because it foreshadows that something tragic happened to the narrator in the distant past. sentence 2 because it foreshadows that the story is primarily about some type of bird. sentence 3 because it foreshadows that something significant happened in either the house or flower garden. sentence 4 because it foreshadows that doodle is no longer present in the narrator’s life.
