The option that represents an example of foreshadowing is:

C. the information the sergeant major gives about the death of the paw's first owner.

Explanation:

W. W. Jacobs was an English writer who lived from 1863 to 1943. This question refers to his short story "The Monkey's Paw." In the story, the Whites have a friend visit them, Sergeant-Major Morris. The sergeant has returned from India with a most unusual artifact: a mummified monkey's paw that gives its owners three wishes.

The author uses foreshadowing to reveal that the paw will bring bad luck to those who use it. Foreshadowing is a technique in which a detail is revealed that will later unfold into something important in the story. In this case, the sergeant reveals that the paw's fist owner used his last wish to ask for his own death.

Indeed, the Whites decide to use the paw only to have it bring misfortune. They ask for money, and end up receiving it only after their son dies. Then they ask for his return from the dead, which certainly seems to happen. All of a sudden, strange knocks at their door can be heard. Finally, the last wish is used, and we can infer that it was for their son to disappear, since his coming back from the dead would not have been a blessing.
