I’m not sure if it’s B or C since it’s a foreshadowing and not a flashback.

Read the passages. A nonlinear plot development is underlined in the second passage. Which statement best describes how it affects the story?

Linear: Colleen stood next to the camera, about to direct the first shot
of her very first film. She was nervous, but she was ready. She took a deep breath. "Action!" she called.

Nonlinear: Colleen stood next to the camera, about to direct the first
shot of her very first film. She was nervous, but she was ready. Years
later, on stage to accept her Academy Award, she would think back to this very moment with gratitude She took a deep breath. "Action!" she called

A. The flashback lets the reader know that Colleen worked hard to be able to direct her first film.
B. The foreshadowing lets the reader know that Colleen's career will be successful.
C. The foreshadowing lets the reader know that Colleen's first film
won't be very good
D. The flashback lets the reader know that Colleen has not prepared
well for this moment.
