What quote best foreshadows Boxer's demise? "In the evenings he would admit privately to Clover that the hoof troubled him a great deal."

"A horse's lungs do not last forever," she said."

"Fools! Fools! shouted Benjamin... 'Do you not see what is written on the side of the van?"

"A cry of horror burst from all the animals?"

"In the evenings he would admit privately to Clover that the hoof troubled him a great deal."

Explanation:

Although it could possibly be the second option, in the context of the text, Clover is simply using a hyperbole to say that Boxer is working too hard. This is before Boxer is in any real danger and does not foreshadow his death.

The first option on the other hand brings worry to the reader. It brings about questions like, "Will he recover?" or, "Will he be able to continue working?". That is how we know that it is proper foreshadowing to his later demise.

  plan: i will begin with a quotation about the importance of unity in a community. then, i will state my claim that an activity will unite our school by creating a shared vision, purpose, and direction. in the body, i will use three main points that describe the different avenues the students can take: through a variety of clubs, through a special event, or through an awareness week. i will provide evidence about other towns that have unity activities and the kinds of events that they include. pictures will illustrate my three main points in action. for the ending, i will restate the main idea in a new way and pose a question to keep the audience thinking. 

- "about the claims : -

making a claim is just a fancy way of saying that you're stating your main point.' claims are not just opinions. a claim tells what you think is true about a topic based on your knowledge .

about the country claims : -

a counterclaim is just the opposite of a claim. counterclaims are also provable and supportable by reasons and evidence. not just, 'because i said so.' when you're planning an argument, you need to know what the counterclaim might be so that you can make sure that you disprove it with your reasons and evidence your research." - (catherineroberts)
