Explanation:

In this passage, the most important indication that we have about the time period and setting of the story is the reference to "gas-shells." Gas shells were a type of chemical weapon that was developed during WWI. Chemical weapons were an important and extremely deadly feature of the conflict. Moreover, the fact that the shells are "dropping" indicates that the characters are near a battlefield.

- "about the claims : -

making a claim is just a fancy way of saying that you're stating your main point.' claims are not just opinions. a claim tells what you think is true about a topic based on your knowledge .

about the country claims : -

a counterclaim is just the opposite of a claim. counterclaims are also provable and supportable by reasons and evidence. not just, 'because i said so.' when you're planning an argument, you need to know what the counterclaim might be so that you can make sure that you disprove it with your reasons and evidence your research." - (catherineroberts)
