Answer:

B. a recital

Step-by-step explanation:

Concepts

What is a setting?

  • A setting is where and when a story takes place.

Solving

First, let's define each answer choice.

Rehearsal: a practicing period for a later performance (in other words, a practice performance of a concert for later in time)

Recital: a live performance by a solo singer, typically on stages

Examination: a test to determine someone's knowledge in a certain area

An unveiling: the presentation of something new in public for the first time

Now that we know the definitions of these words, let's look at clues from the article that could help us determine the setting. "Stage fright" and "audience" indicate that she's definitely going to be performing or presenting something. This concludes that she is not at rehearsal. Next, we notice some women who appear to be judges. Typically, there's no judges in an unveiling, so we can remove that option. Lastly, we see Anne singing a certain song by herself and overcoming her fear. In a recital, there's a soloist who sings a song in front of a live audience.

Thus, the answer is B. a recital.
