Cevap

Foreshadowing pairs with providing subtle hints about future plot developments; In media res pairs with opening a narrative in the midst of critical action; Deus ex machina pairs with resolving a plot complication through sudden unexpected intervention; Analepsis pairs with inserting past events into the present story flow.
Each narrative device correctly aligns with its structural role: Foreshadowing signals future events, In media res establishes an active narrative starting point, Deus ex machina resolves an intractable conflict via artificial means, and Analepsis provides retrospective context through flashback.
