Answer: Option B.
Explanation:

The dialogue ‘You are rich, respected, admired, beloved; you are happy, as once I was. You are a man to be missed’ is taken from a short story ‘The Cask of Amontillado’ written by Edgar Poe. This dialogue builds suspense in a sense that the words ‘as once I was’ makes a reader anxious about what might have happened in a narrator’s life that he’s no more happy. The dialogue leaves space for uncertainty of the events that took place.

"<span>Mr. Wand and his company have left their wagons here and made pack-saddles, intending to pack their clothing, blankets, provisions, and cooking utensils on their animals, in order to travel faster".</span>
