Richard walked over, looked down into the cardboard box, and pulled out an old knapsack.

Answer 2

'He was sitting on a large rock with the knapsack beside him and the harmonica still in his hands.'

Step-by-step explanation:

A setting is the time and place in which a story is told. None of these sentences have a super clear and vivid description of the setting. The last sentence only had the description of what he was wearing but the third sentence described that 'he is on a large rock, with the knapsack beside him and the harmonica still in his hands' which is as descriptive as we can get from these 4 sentences!
