Answer:

b) The speaker and the reader wait again to find out what is making the noise.

Explanation:

The poem "The Raven" by Edgar Allen Poe is a dramatic monologue of the speaker who was interrupted at night by a knocking sound. Told from a scholarly young man's perspective, the poem addresses his change in mood as the poem progresses.

The given excerpt in the question is from the sixth stanza of the poem when the knocking came for the second time. But when he opens the door, it was nothing, no one at the door. The stanza contributes to the suspense of the poem for both the speaker and the readers aren't sure of who is behind the knocking. And both have to wait to find out the source of the noise.
