Answer:
By telling the story as a flashback so the narrator is able to foreshadow events
Explanation:
Edgar Allan Poe is the author of "The Black Cat". He decided to structure the story as a flashback, so the narrator foreshadows the events. He gives the readers some ideas about what will happen later in the story. For example: the narrator begins the story telling that he is sentenced to death, what gives us the idea that he has committed a crime, even before he starts telling that story.
