Evening and quiet: a bird trills in the poplar trees behind the house with the dark green door across the road. 5 Into the sky,

the red earthenware and the galvanised iron chimneys thrust their cowls. The hoot of the steamers on the Thames is plain. No wind; 10 the trees merge, green with green; a car whirs by; footsteps and voices take their pitch in the key of dusk, far-off and near, subdued. 15 Solid and square to the world the houses stand, their windows blocked with venetian blinds. Nothing will move them. 2 How does the author use setting to convey a sense of isolation from others? A. By describing the evening as quiet B. By describing the greenness of the trees C. By describing how the houses act as barricades D. By describing how the chimneys rise into the sky

Answer:

C - By describing how the houses act as barricades

Explanation:

"(...)Solid and square to the world the houses stand, their windows blocked with venetian blinds. Nothing will move them (...)".

"Nothing will move them" means that nothing could ever penetrate those houses. Not the sound of cars nor the voices.

The houses stand alone, solid and square, with windows blocked. You can't get in or out, you are trapped, you are alone.
