Question

which of the following citations indicates an example of setting?
\i was greatly shocked and grieved.\
\one winters night, two years ago...\
\thompson--the expressmans name was thompson,\

Explanation:

• The first option shows an emotion (shock, grief), not setting.
• The second option gives time ("one winter's night, two years ago") and implies a place context, which is part of setting (time and place of a story).
• The third option introduces a character's name, not setting.

Answer:

B. "One winter's night, two years ago..."
