Which details from the text help readers visualize the setting? Check all that apply. "It was a maze of crooked, narrow lanes and alleys shaded and sheltered by the overhanging thatch." "The floors were dirt, and there was very little furniture" In this excerpt from Mark Twain's novel, the narrator describes a village. Read the passage, then answer the question. Our Domremy was like any other humble little hamlet of that remote time and region. It was a maze of crooked, narrow lanes and alleys shaded and sheltered by the overlianging thatch roofs of the barnlike houses. The houses were dimly lighted by wooden-shuttered windows that is, holes in the walls which served for windows. The floors were dirt, and there was very little furniture. Sheep and cattle grazing was the main industry; all the young folks tended flocks. The situation was beautiful. From one edge of the village a flowery plain extended in a wide sweep to the river-the Meuse; from the rear edge of the village a grassy slope rose gradually, and at the top was the great oak foresta forest that was deep and gloomy and dense, and full of interest for us children, for many murders had been done O "A flowery plain extended in a wide sweep to the river." "In fact, one was still living in there in our own time." "I think there is no sense in forming an opinion when there is no evidence to form it on."
