Q1) Where has each of the above stories been set
- Real Durwan
It has been set in India, Calcutta
- Adventure of the Speckled Band
Together in a room at baker street.
- - Pride and Prejudice
Around Netherfield park.
Q2) what time period has each of these stories been set in
- Real Durwan
In the 19th century-20th century. Such occasions are really common during these periods and some are still present till today. 1983
- Adventure of the Speckled Band
After India got independece
- - Pride and Pejudice
18th- 19th century. The idea of having daughters to marrying a rich man is really common during these periods.
Q3) What clues can you get from the setting of the story and what is it going to turn out to be?
- Real Durwan
Its setting is a dirty stairwell which sort of portrays the character as a lonely, solemn character and probably a story which is sad. The story took place right after India got their independence so i will expect some form of turmoil portrayed in the story
- Adventure of the Speckled Band
From its setting, it is sort of an interesting story and makes the readers engaged in the plot.
- - Pride and Pejudice
The setting tells me that the story is going to be really exciting and I would expect
a interesting plot due to the fact that the mother is rather comical and would do almost anything to marry off her daughters.
Q4) The setting of “to kill a mocking bird” is a small town called Maycomb. It is referred to a place for jackass and it is sort of a place which is not very classy and is definitely not a luxurious place for rich people to stay there. Most of the residents are all blacks.
As a result, this tells me that the story is about discrimination as the blacks are staying in a small, not luxurious place while the while the whites are staying in a far better place.
The story is indeed about discrimination against the blacks and shows that the whites are getting better treatment than the blacks.

I think you should have noticed by now too. There is an unanswered question 4 right at the bottom of your blog posts. Anyway, disregarding that, I think that this is a relatively well answered post, but the thing is I feel that your answers are a little too brief. Perhaps you can give readers a more in depth understanding of how you feel about the questions asked.
