To determine the correct verb to complete the sentence, we need to consider the subject of the sentence, which is "This essay." The verb should agree with the subject in number, which means if the subject is singular, the verb should be singular as well.
In this case, "essay" is a singular noun, so we need a singular verb form. The correct verb that agrees with the subject is "describes," so the correct answer is B. "This essay describes the history of the Olympics."
