A.
rising action

B.
setting

C.
character

D.
anticlimax

Answer 1

Yes is is B!

Answer 2

I would say either A, or B. But I think B because it is giving you the setting of where this is taking place. So you wouldn't expect to all of a sudden see pirates right? You would more expect to hear of a lost civilization or see a camel walk past. It's basically getting you into the mindset of where the story's taking place and what to expect next.
