The word 'plausible' typically means credible, which indicates that a statement or theory seems reasonable or probable, but not confirmed as fact.
Step-by-step explanation:
The word plausible in paragraph 29 most likely means credible, which is option B. This definition suggests that something described as plausible appears to be truthful, believable, or persuasive. It is not necessarily about being enjoyable, lengthy, or abstract, which rules out options A, C, and D.
For example, if a character in a story proposes a theory that seems reasonable to the other characters or to the reader, one could say the theory is a plausible explanation for the events that have taken place. The use of the word plausible in this context indicates that the information or explanation is convincingly reasonable or probable, rather than something that has been confirmed as fact. It hints at the credibility of a statement without certifying it as definitely true.
