The correct answer is D.) Fortunato wants to continue their descent into the vaults for the Amontillado.

In the passage, Fortunato still wants to continue walking into the vaults of Amontillado even though it is dangerous. It was shown by his words in the passage. So the correct answer is D. 

Answer:

B. The narrator knows it is already too late for Fortunato to escape

Explanation:

In the case of what we have read, the narrator is trying to make Fortunato want to continue so he does not suspect that anything devious is happening. I did take the test, and this was the answer.

I hope this helps!!!
