Question

What category would you put the following text in?

But about three miles from the town a little stream of water (which they called a "river," but we would call only a brook) ran slow and muddy across the prairie; and where the road crossed it a flat bridge had been built.

place
time
characters

Answer 1

Place I think but I’m not sure

Answer 2

Place

Step-by-step explanation:

Place is the answer because there is no characters in this text nor is there a date like 11/14/10 or a time. This is place because it is saying where and what, it is talking about a place.
