Answer:
The setting.
Explanation:
The setting of any story or text is the geographical location or any indication of time or place that can tell the readers about where the scene is taking place. It also provides the detail about what the scene looks like.
In the given excerpt from "The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street" by Rod Sterling, Charlie's dialogue provides the setting of the particular scene.
