Answer 1

B."Well, I don't see the money," said his son, as he picked it up and placed it on the table, "and I bet I never shall."

Answer 2

I would say that the sentence from the story that foreshadows the evil results of using the monkey's paw is A: As I wished it twsted in my hands like a snake.

Step-by-step explanation:

I chose this first sentence because I think it is the only one that describes an evil and painful action when saying "it twisted in my hands like a snake". By reading this, the reader can almost feel the pain of torture in his/her own body.
