Read the following excerpt from “Raymond’s Run” and answer the question.

Now some people like to act like things come easy to them, won’t let on that they practice. Not me. I’ll high-prance down 34th Street like a rodeo pony to keep my knees strong even if it does get my mother uptight so that she walks ahead like she’s not with me, don’t know me, is all by herself on a shopping trip, and I am somebody else’s crazy child.

How can Squeaky’s word choice help you determine the setting of the story to be Harlem, NY?

Squeaky and her mother are going shopping.
Squeaky mentions 34th Street, which is in Harlem.
Squeaky exercises in the street because there are no parks.
Squeaky and her mother walk because they don’t have a car.
