Which of these is a good example of the author's use of dialogue to build suspense?
True [87]

The dialogue which is a good example of the author's use of dialogue to build suspense is, “You are rich, respected, admired, beloved; you are happy, as once I was. You are a man to be missed.”

Answer: Option B.

Explanation:

Many a times, authors make use of words or dialogue to create a suspense in the minds of readers, as in it makes a person curious or anxious to known about the uncertainty of what happened or might happen. 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.
