thing

thing that happens

    The correct answer is A. It focuses on one main character and one main plot event

    Explanation:

    In academic texts, such as essays it is recommended to use only formal language that implies avoiding contractions, slangs, and informal expressions. Instead, you should use technical or sophisticated vocabulary; also the use of I or words that express personal prejudices should be avoided.

    In the case of sentence 3 "It's about one person, and one important thing happens" this is informal due to the use of a contraction "it's" and the use of the word "thing". Also, in literature people participating in stories are characters and events are part of a plot. According to this, the best revision is "It focuses on one main character and one main plot event" because this omits informal words and instead uses technical vocabulary such as character and plot events.
