Question

Which details best reveal the setting of the passage? Select two options. “It is a great Dead Place—greater than any Dead Place we know.” “Everywhere there are the ruins of the high towers of the gods.” “I went carefully, my strung bow in my hand, my skin ready for danger.” “I looked after it, and thought if it had trod me under, at least I would be safely dead.” “When I had dried my bowstring and re-strung it, I walked forward to the Place of the Gods.”

Answer 1

Everywhere there are the ruins of the high towers of the gods.

The setting shows where a story is taking place.

It helps you make an image in your mind as you read.

The first option doesn't draw much of a picture.

The last three options are about the character, not the setting.

Answer 2

“It is a great Dead Place—greater than any Dead Place we know.”

“Everywhere there are the ruins of the high towers of the gods.”

These are the correct answers.
