I smiled to myself as I remembered the game that made me a star ten years ago . . . The rain was pouring down as I stepped out onto the football field. It was the last game of the season, and we had yet to lose a game. Today might be different. We were playing the state champions, and they were undefeated. I took a deep breath and fastened my helmet. The game was about to begin.

Which of the following details foreshadows the outcome of the game?
A. The team is undefeated.
B. The team is playing the state champions.
C. It is raining.
D. The game made the narrator a star.

A?

I don't think so. Think again. Does the losing team usually have a "star"?

Oh ok then its D?

I think so, yes.

thank you so much :D :D
