Read the excerpt from part 2 of "Flowers for Algernon."

They've been feeding Algernon, who now refuses to work the shifting-lock problem. Everyone identifies me with Algernon. In a
way we're both the first of our kind. They're all pretending that Algernon's behavior is not necessarily significant for me. But it's
hard to hide the fact that some of the other animals who were used in this experiment are showing strange behavior.
What does this excerpt foreshadow?
Charlie may be able to help Algernon.
Charlie may start becoming more intelligent
Charlie may be able to escape Algernon's fate
Charlie may start acting differently as well.

Answer:

Charlie may start acting differently, as well

Step-by-step explanation:

The first part of the passage clearly shows that, while other people believe that Charlie and Algernon have similar features, Charlie (the narrator) himself does not deny that there are resemblances. He even goes further and shows the reader the he himself believes that he and Algernon share some characteristics. This is a suggestion that, in the future, Charlie can become more and more like Algernon.
