Explanatory Answer

Option 1: This option is incorrect as it incorrectly uses "affect" (the verb form) in its base form. Since the subject "setting" is singular, the verb must agree in number, requiring the third-person singular form "affects." While "affect" is the correct verb choice (as it means "to influence," unlike "effect," which as a verb means "to cause"), the lack of subject-verb agreement makes this option grammatically incorrect.
Option 2: Here, "effects" is incorrectly used as the verb. While "effect" can be a verb meaning "to bring about," the intended meaning here is "to influence," which requires "affects." Additionally, "stories’" is the plural possessive form, which is illogical since the sentence refers to a single story, not multiple stories.
Option 3: This option is grammatically sound. "Affects" (third-person singular of "affect") correctly matches the singular subject "setting" and conveys the intended meaning of "influencing" the plot. The possessive "story’s" is also properly used to indicate the plot belonging to a single story.
Option 4: While "affects" is correctly used here, "story plots" changes the meaning. The original sentence refers to the plot of a single story ("the story’s plot"), but "story plots" implies multiple plots, which is contextually inaccurate.

Hence, the answer is 'affects the story’s plot.'

Choice C is the correct answer.
