Read the sentence. In the story “Mericans,” Micaela thinks her grandmother is awful. Which is the best revision of this sentence using academic vocabulary?

“Protagonist” is a more academic term for the main character, and “expresses” is more formal than “thinks.” Choice C uses these words while keeping the sentence’s meaning: Micaela, the protagonist, thinks her grandmother is awful. The other choices either use less academic wording or add the unsupported claim that the grandmother mistreats Micaela.
