So far, I had not opened my eyes. I felt that I lay upon my back, unbound. I reached out my hand, and it fell heavily upon somet

hing damp and hard. There I suffered it to remain for many minutes, while I strove to imagine where and what I could be. I longed, yet dared not to employ my vision. I dreaded the first glance at objects around me. It was not that I feared to look upon things horrible, but that I grew aghast lest there should be nothing to see. At length, with a wild desperation at heart, I quickly unclosed my eyes. My worst thoughts, then, were confirmed. The blackness of eternal night encompassed me.I struggled for breath. The intensity of the darkness seemed to oppress and stifle me. The atmosphere was intolerably close. I still lay quietly and made effort to exercise my reason. I brought to mind the inquisitorial proceedings and attempted from that point to deduce my real condition. The sentence had passed, and it appeared to me that a very long interval of time had since elapsed.How does Poe create suspense in this excerpt?a. by suggesting that the narrator is reacting with an unrealistic degree of panic.
b. by indicating that a long time has passed since the narrator was sentenced.c. by having the narrator reach out and touch something unidentified.d. by describing the narrator's distress as he tries to figure out where he is.

The correct answer is letter D.

Dear john,

its been a while since we haven't met.I hope you and your family are doing well.I miss you alot and i wish to see you soon.Im writing this letter to tell you where i went last Sunday cause we'd always go somewhere every sunday when you were here so, i thought I'd share with you where i went.

I went to fun park where i played different kinds of games. I experienced what its like to get on a roller coaster. I swear to god im not gonna have its ride again. The fun park was located nearby my city. I wasn't alone.My cousin and i went together by my dads new car.I saw some amazing rides and we also ate some delectable food. It was a very nice experience.

I wont forget that day ever. I balled alot and i wish you were there , it would be cheery on top.i guess i have to end my writing here. I hope you got the clarity of this letter .

your friend,
