Which of the following could be a made-up story about the scientist Albert Einstein?
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

I would say B) Historical fiction.

Explanation:

Think of it this way:

You are in a library, and you want to read a book about Albert Einstein. You would go into the history section, since Einstein was alive many years ago. And if you wanted a fictional (not real) story, you would go into the fiction section. If you put those two together, history and fiction, you would want to go to the historical fiction section to find your book.

I hope this makes sense. Let me know if I did something wrong.

Have a good day!
