Which phrase best describes the setting of this excerpt from Stephen Crane’s “An Episode of War”? The low white tents of the hospital were grouped around an old school-house. There was here a singular commotion. In the foreground two ambulances interlocked wheels in the deep mud. The drivers were tossing the blame of it back and forth, gesticulating and berating, while from the ambulances, both crammed with wounded, there came an occasional groan. An interminable crowd of bandaged men were coming and going. Great numbers sat under the trees nursing heads or arms or legs. There was a dispute of some kind raging on the steps of the school-house. Sitting with his back against a tree a man with a face as grey as a new army blanket was serenely smoking a corn-cob pipe. The lieutenant wished to rush forward and inform him that he was dying. A. injured people flocking around a school B. a makeshift hospital without proper facilities C. a schoolhouse with a lot of children making a commotion D. wounded soldiers lying unattended on the battlefront E. people running to save the wounded soldiers trapped inside an ambulance
