Sorry, I didn't notice you had checked my previous post.

I still have a few doubts. Thank you.

1)He excuses himself by saying that on that occasion he didn't want to do her any harm. (Is "excuse" acceptable in this sentence?)
2) The plot is very simple and built around (is based on/revolves around/is centred/centres around/on the interralation between the two main characters. Which of the verbs above is possible?

2. All variations seem fine.

3. It's fine -- correct the spelling on "one," though.
