Respuesta :

This paragraph of the book "Jane Eyre" showcases elements of the time ("this morning") and location ("A change had taken place in the weather the preceding evening, and a keen north-east wind, whistling through the crevices of our bedroom windows all night long") of the story, both of them serving as part of the backdrop and mood.

Considering these elements, the correct answer is option 4. Setting.
