He stopped, backed up, and entered a narrow dirt road almost hidden by trees. Five hundred yards down, the road ran parallel to a fenced-in field. Charlie parked in a cleared area deeply rutted by frozen tractor tracks. The gate was locked. In the spring, Andy thought, there will be cows here, and a dog that chases them, but now the field was unmarked and bare.

What does the setting in this passage help convey?
Andy’s desire to get away from the field
Andy’s discomfort in the cold wilderness
Charlie’s anticipation about the upcoming hunt
Charlie’s anxiety about driving on the frozen ground

Answer:

The answer is B. Andy's discomfort in the cold wilderness.

Step-by-step explanation:

I know this because I just took the test on edge. Also I know this because if you use process of elimination you would see that A. is not the correct answer because in the passage, Andy did't have any action that would indicate that he wanted to get away from the field. C. is not the answer because the passage said nothing about a hunt. Now D. is not the answer because the passage was mostly about their shock when they got to the barn, and Charlie showed no action of anxiety. Your Welcome. I hope this helped!
