3. Inference and Foreshadowing

How is foreshadowing different than inference? 

Foreshadowing is what the author puts into the work, the hints about what is going to happen. Inferences would be the way the reader interprets these hints, when the reader sees ideas in the work that are not expressed directly by the author. Inferences should be based on evidence that is found in the text, however.


How are foreshadowing and inferance similar?

They are both based on evidence.

Give an example of inference from the story.

An example of inferance in the story is the dog sleeping in front of the fireplace which makes him think that this is a safe place.
