A

Explanation:

The work of non-fiction does not include fictional elements. A work of non-fiction includes scientific writing, business communication, research based papers, articles on current affairs, etc. Such writings don't include fictional elements which include a plot, characters, and setting to tell a story. The fictional writing is creative which is based on imagination and imaginary setting and characters while non-fictional works are factual and informative pieces, which don't take such elements. As fictional writing is narrative based on an incident, non-fictional works are scientific in nature and follows a procedure which does not offer space to imaginary things.
