Answer:
D.
Explanation:
"Sense and Sensibility" is a novel written by Jane Austen. The novel is about two sisters, Elinor Dashwood and Marianne Dashwood, who both represents the sense and sensibility. Elinor is a self-controlled and rational, whereas, Marianne is sensitive.
In the given excerpt, Elinor's reaction to <em>run out of the room and burst into tears of joy </em>tells that she intends to hide her emotions from people around and refrain from arousing any suspicion toward her.
Therefore, option D is correct.
