Identifying When a Story Takes Place

Based on the details that show time, when does the
story take place?
O midnight
The shadows on the dark surface of the court were
long. The light of day was fading. There was just one light
on the court, but it hadn't come on. Neither had the
streetlights. Now Lydia knew someone had chosen this
time especially for her - free throws in dim light.
Then the one-on-one would probably be against Jared
himself.

Late afternoon.


Explanation:


The author uses words such as dim light, and talks about how the street lamps haven’t come on yet but the light of the day way fading. This means it’s not midnight, and it’s not early in the day.
