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.

Read the excerpt from the common sense of bicycling: bicycling for ladies. the bicycle is capable of such high speed that there is a strong temptation to ride so fast as to cause over exertion or excessive perspiration. on the other hand some people ride too slow, causing a zigzag and uncertain movement. while exercising reasonable caution, be a fearless rider. when you come to a steep hill, if the road is clear, let it go as fast as it will. if you rid yourself of that ghost of fear, coasting is one of the greatest delights of cycling. which is the best paraphrase of the text?
