Answer

A

Explanation

The question is asking for the correct form of a noun phrase that fits into the sentence. The phrase should be a possessive noun phrase, indicating that the stories belong to the people. In English, the possessive form of a plural noun ending in "s" is formed by adding an apostrophe after the "s". Therefore, the correct answer is "people's stories". The other options are incorrect because they either lack the apostrophe or incorrectly place it.
