The scenario that describes the ethical use of someone else’s original work is:

**A critic includes a long excerpt from the end of a novel he is reviewing, crediting the author.**

This scenario indicates that the critic is using the work in a way that is typically acceptable in reviews, as long as the original author is credited, which acknowledges the source of the work. Generally, using excerpts for commentary or critique is considered fair use, especially in a critical context.
