The statement about contractions that is true is <u>You should usually omit contractions from academic writing.</u>
<u />
A contraction is the use of symbols or words to shorten a sentence or phrase, which makes it informal.
For example, when the phrase: "You are eating Oreos" is used and a person wants to shorten it using contraction, then he would exchange the "a" with an apostrophe which shortens it and gives you: "<u>You're eating Oreos"</u>
Therefore, the statement about contractions which is true is:
<u>A. You should usually omit contractions from academic writing.</u>
