Answer:

"I remember only the dry September of the dirt roads and grassless yards of the shantytown where I lived."

Step-by-step explanation:

According to a different source, these are the options that come with this question:

  • "I remember only the dry September of the dirt roads and grassless yards of the shantytown where I lived."
  • "I feel again the chaotic emotions of adolescence, illusive as smoke."
  • "Hey, Elizabeth," Joey yelled. He never talked when he could yell. "Hey, Elizabeth, let's go somewhere."
  • "The years have taken me world's away from that time and place."

The term setting refers to the time and place in which a story takes place. The setting of a story gives context to the plot, as well as to the actions of the characters. In this passage, we learn about a time period (the dry September) and a location (the dirt roads and grassless yards of the shantytown where I lived), which makes this the best example of an explicit setting.
