PLEASE HELP FAST! :)

Read the following passage. Using complete sentences, describe the setting of the story and explain how details about the character or mood helped make the setting clear. In your response, use phrases and words from the passage to support your opinion.

Omnari sped toward the island, increasing the speed of her Hover-Ski so it rose a full foot above the water. There was just enough sun to power it ... sun she would have enjoyed if not for the boring scavenger hunt her ancient history teacher assigned. She slowed as she spotted her target: the broken rusty arm gripping the torch and the severed metal head in a shattered crown staring sadly out to sea. Omnari blinked to take an EyePhoto, checked her list, and headed toward the crumbled city in the distance.

Answer 1

The setting of the story is most likely in the future and Omnari is on a scavenger hunt. They are in the future because in the paragraph, it states "increasing the speed of her Hover-Ski so it rose a full foot above the water.” and “Omnari blinked to take an EyePhoto” showing that with the technology, it is most likely placed in the future. Omnari's mood is bored since she called the scavenger hunt boring.

Answer 2

The setting of the story is in a futuristic society in which the main character (Omnari) is completing a task on a secluded island. We know it is secluded because of the dilapidation of the relic "the broken rusty arm gripping the torch and the severed metal head in a shattered crown staring sadly out to sea" And the words the author uses such as sad, and rusty. Indicating a gloomy , lonely mood.
