Read the excerpt from “The Scarlet Ibis.” The knowledge that Doodle’s and my plans had come to naught was bitter, and that streak of cruelty within me awakened. I ran as fast as I could, leaving him far behind with a wall of rain dividing us. The drops stung my face like nettles, and the wind flared the wet glistening leaves of the bordering trees. Soon I could hear his voice no more. What best describes the purpose of the foreshadowing present in the narrator’s words, “Soon I could hear his voice no more”? It adds interest as the reader questions what kind of storm could be loud enough to drown out all other sound. It creates suspense as the reader wonders why the narrator can no longer hear Doodle’s voice. It allows the reader to better visualize what life for the narrator will be like if Doodle is no longer in it. It helps the reader predict what the narrator will say to his parents when he arrives home without Doodle.
