Question

How do you know the story is set in the past?


A. Caline is a young girl.

B. Caline encounters a sketch artist.

C. Caline travels to New Orleans.

D. Caline encounters a flagman.

Answer 1

It can't be A nor C (logical). It must be B, since sketch artists aren't really around now. Flagmans are common to see, especially on construction sites.
