Which excerpt from a student’s narrative most clearly indicates the setting?
Answer
A
Shawna grumpily got dressed and dragged her bulging suitcase to her mom’s idling car. Since her mom had to travel for work, Shawna was going to spend the summer with her aunt and uncle.
B
This would be her first time meeting these relatives since they lived on a small remote island. Shawna had begged to stay at her best friend’s house, but her mom refused.
C
After throwing her bag into the trunk, Shawna sat silently in the backseat, lost in her thoughts. About an hour later, their car pulled into the parking lot of the ferry that would be taking her to the island.
D
The ferry bobbed up and down, and Shawna was glad to be on the outside deck. It was nearing sunset when the boat reached the island. Shawna gasped at the lush vegetation and majestic cliffs of her new home.
