SETTING DESCRIPTION MODEL:

Setting description taken from: "1984" by George Orwell

Outside, even through the shut window pane, the world looked cold. Down in the street little eddies of wind were whirling dust and torn paper into spirals, and though the sun was shining and the sky a harsh blue, there seemed to be no color in anything except the posters that were plastered everywhere... Down at street level another poster, torn at one corner, flapped fitfully in the wind. . . . In the far distance, a helicopter skimmed down between the roofs, hovered for an instant and darted away again with a curving flight. 

SETTINGS TO CHOOSE:

1. At the zoo at night

2. In an abandoned hospital

3. On the edge of a cliff overlooking a destroyed city
