Question

Select the correct text in the passage.
Which detail shows a foreshadowing structure in the text?
A Day's Lodging
by Jack London (adapted excerpt)
He urged the dogs to their work again. He had travelled on the frozen surface of a great river. Behind him it stretched away in a mighty curve of many miles, losing itself in
a fantastic jumble of mountains, snow-covered and silent. Ahead of him the river split into many channels to accommodate the freight of islands it carried on its breast.
These islands were silent and white; no animals nor humming insects broke the silence; no birds flew in the chill air. There was no sound of man, nor mark of the
handiwork of man---the world slept.
John Messner seemed succumbing to the apathy of it all as the frost was benumbing his spirit. He plodded on with bowed head, unobservant, mechanically rubbing nose
and cheeks, and batting his steering hand against the gee-pole in the straight trail-stretches. But the dogs were observant, and suddenly they stopped, turning their heads
and looking back at their master out of eyes that were wistful and questioning. Their eyelashes were frosted white, as were their muzzles, and they had all the seeming of
decrepit old age, what of the frost-rime and exhaustion.

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct text in the passage which details a foreshadowing structure is

"There was no sound of man, nor a mark of the handiwork of man---the world slept."

Explanation:

Foreshadowing in literature refers to the hint at an impending problem, happenstance, or sudden change or turn of events.

Writers usually achieve this via the dialogue between characters', comments by the narrator which. Sometimes the narrator can make reference to a prophecy. A prophecy can also be put forward using one of the characters.

In this case, the foreshadowing came via the narrator.

Notice from the excerpt that it starts by saying "he (John Messner) urged the dogs to their work again.

He (the traveler, John Mesner) must have been in transit from to or from the lodging, using a sled driven by dogs for this was hinted at in the opening sentence of the excerpt.

Fast forward to sentence 6, the narrator states "There was no sound of man, no mark of the handiwork of man---the world slept."

If there was no sound of a man... that must have included the traveler either at the time when the observation was made or much later in the actual occurrence when the dogs, observant, suddenly stopped, turning heads and looked back at their masters mournfully. [See sentence 9]
