Question

how are flashbacks and flashforwards similar?
○ they both move the story out of the regular timeline
○ they are both parts of the story’s ending
○ they both only show the future
○ they both explain a character’s childhood

Explanation:

Flashbacks shift to events that happened before the current story timeline, while flashforwards shift to events that will happen after the current timeline. Both narrative devices break away from the story's regular, linear sequence of events. The other options are incorrect: flashbacks do not show the future, neither is limited to the story's ending, and only flashbacks might cover a character's childhood (not a universal similarity).

Answer:

They both move the story out of the regular timeline
