Answer: You can determine a story's place by paying attention to the details the narrator provides; for example, if the opening scene features a character walking out of the Hancock Tower into a bitter snowstorm and hailing a cab, the story is probably set in Chicago. The setting is the environment in which a story or event takes place. Setting can include specific information about time and place (e.g. Boston, Massachusetts, in 1809) or can simply be descriptive (eg. a lonely farmhouse on a dark night).
Hope this helps.... Stay safe and have a Merry Christmas!!!!!! :D
