Highlight descriptive details in this passage.
They grabbed him by the arms and dragged him into the courtyard. We followed, but stopped at the door like a group of frightened baby chicks. We saw Iqbal's knees scrape on the stones on the ground, his arm bang against the edge of the well. The master stopped at the rusty iron door and pulled it slowly open on rasping hinges. We saw him disappear down the steps into the dark, jerking Iqbal after him. Then we heard the awful, terrifying sound that haunted our sleep: the grate of the Tomb as it was raised and then bang! as it fell closed. The sound echoed in the heavy heat of the courtyard.
—Iqbal,

Respuesta :

Answer:

3.“Iqbal’s knees scrape on the stones on the ground”

5.“down the steps into the dark”

6,“the heavy heat of the courtyard”

Explanation:

The setting, in literary works, is the place and the time in which the story is developed. following this reasoning, descriptive descriptions of the scene, are things that show us how the setting is at that moment in the narrative.

For this reason we can conclude that the phrase "Iqbal's knees scrape on the stones on the ground" provides a descriptive detail of the setting because it shows that where the story is being developed, there are stones on the ground.  Similarly, the phrase "down the steps into the dark" provides the description that the setting was dark, and the phrase "the heavy heat of the courtyard" shows that the courtyard was warm.
