Answer:
The setting details are omitted from the plot of the story.
Explanation:
Washington Irving's "The Mysterious Picture" is part of his "Tales of a Traveler" in which the protagonist details his encounters while traveling. The particular short story is about him and the mysterious picture that hangs in his room for the night.
This gothic story delves into suspense where the narrator ends up having to spend the night in the room with the mysterious picture. And from the particular passage, the owner of the house reveals the way to ensure who is the most heroic gentleman among his guests. And while revealing his plan for the night, the author fails or did not reveal the setting details of the mansion or chambers of the scene where the men are to stay for the night.
Thus, Irving builds up suspense by omitting the setting details of the story.

Answer:
The central idea of the text is developed around the concept of "construction".
Explanation:
The text talks about how human beings are built, both in biological and behavioral ways. For this, the text creates an environment where it relates the construction of the human being with the construction of residences and shows how different factors allow residences to be built, so that human beings are built. After presenting this concept, the text describes how we are constituted physically and biologically by our genes and how it is immutable and does not depend on our will.
The text also shows how we are built psychologically and behaviorally by the environment in which we live. This construction, however, is changeable, since we can modify the environment in which we operate, as well as our personality.
