PLEASEEE HELP!! Reread this example of foreshadowing from “About Russel” by Rita Williams Garcia. A. It helps create tension by highlighting the ways in which Russel was a difficult child in order to suggest that we will prove to be a difficult adult. B It helps create surprise when we later learn that Russell lives a life where he has alinated himself from society and doesn’t care about others. C It helps create an understanding of Russels sense of humor, which he uses to avoid letting others know that he is in pain. D It helps create suspense by hinting that, through Russell may have had troubles as a child, there is potential for him to change as a grown up.

Based on the information provided, the correct answer is D. It helps create suspense by hinting that, through Russell may have had troubles as a child, there is potential for him to change as a grown up.

Foreshadowing is a literary technique in which an author hints at or suggests events that will occur later in the story. In this example, the author is using foreshadowing to hint that Russell, who was a difficult child, may have the potential to change as a grown up. This creates suspense by suggesting that there may be more to Russell's story than what is initially revealed, and that the reader should pay attention to his character development throughout the story.
