Answer 1

The correct answer is B. The sentence "He had nearly given up the search when he caught sight of the object of his pursuit standing irresolutely on the border of the carriage drive" foreshadows a future event in the story.

Answer 2

## Step 1The problem is asking us to identify a detail in the given excerpt that foreshadows a future event in the story. Foreshadowing is a literary device where the author gives clues or hints about what will happen later in the story.## Step 2We need to analyze each option and determine which one provides a hint about a future event.## Step 3Option A: "Lying on the ground by the side of the bench was a small oval packet". This sentence describes an object found on the ground, but it doesn't provide any hints about future events.## Step 4Option B: "He had nearly given up the search when he caught sight of the object of his pursuit standing irresolutely on the border of the carriage drive". This sentence indicates that Gortsby is in pursuit of someone, and he is nearly giving up. This suggests that there is a significant event or revelation that is about to happen.## Step 5Option C: "In another moment Gortsby was scudding along the dusk-shrouded path in anxious quest for a youthful figure in a light overcoat". This sentence describes Gortsby's actions, but it doesn't provide any hints about future events.## Step 6Option D: "He turned round sharply with an air of defensive hostility when he found Gortsby hailing him". This sentence describes the character's reaction, but it doesn't provide any hints about future events.
