A ). Dystopian fiction exaggerates existing problems in our reality to show readers what could happen if society continues down a certain path.

Explanation:

As per the question, option A i.e. 'Dystopian fiction exaggerates existing problems in our reality to show readers what could happen if society continues down a certain path' reveals the main claim that the author presents in the text.

It reveals the author's key argument that dystopian fiction(which is contrary to utopia) portrays the future vision and presents the prevailing issues of the society in an elevated manner to show the consequences of following such a path of conflicts, technological control, environmental ruin, and oppression.

However, it adopts a pessimistic and negative approach by assuming the society as dehumanizing yet it allows the readers to foresee the consequences of their present involvement in these issues and take an initiative to rectify them. Thus, option A is the correct answer.
