Answer 1

Answer:a. Willing suspension of disbelief

Explanation:

What does this phrase mean?

It occurs when we accept event as believable so that we can enjoy the the story line.

This occurs when we watch drama or read a story on the book evethough we know that these are just characters and non of this is true but still in order for us to enjoy the story to the fullest we willingly accept these characters as real in order to have a true feeling towards the story and it's message.

It like when we watch a sad movie and we find ourselves crying because we have accepted the characters to be true in order to fully enjoy the story.
