Read the excerpt from The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. I hesitated long before I put this theory to the test of prac

The excerpt is a good example of suspense because it
a. educates the reader with background information.
b. tells the reader the inner thoughts of a main character.
c. amuses the reader with interesting descriptive details.
d. makes the reader excited about what will happen next.
D. Makes the reader excited about what will happen next.
Explanation:
Not only does the excerpt cause the reader to wonder whether Dr. Jekyll will be successful in creating a potion that is safe to drink, but if you look at the answer choices, this is the only one that implies the idea of suspense.
