Read the excerpt from The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. From that time forward, Mr. Utterson began to haunt the door in the by-street of shops. In the morning before office hours, at noon when business was plenty, and time scarce, at night under the face of the fogged city moon, by all lights and at all hours of solitude or concourse, the lawyer was to be found on his chosen post. "If he be Mr. Hyde," he had thought, "I shall be Mr. Seek." How is Mr. Utterson characterized in the excerpt? as mysterious as depressed as determined as generous

C) as determined.

I just recently took this test, so I can confirm this is correct.

As determined.

Explanation:

Robert Louise Stevenson's "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" tells the story of the dual personalities of a known doctor Jekyll. But the appearance of his "protege' or alter ego Mr Hyde is the exact opposite, a monster in all senses.

Mr. Utterson is the lawyer of Dr. Jekyll and had been told of how a Mr. Hyde had trampled a small child and had produced a cheque signed by the doctor a compensation for the girl's death. Again, he had appeared as the sole benefactor of Jekyll's wealth in his will, which arouses Mr. Utterson's curiosity. But with the allusive nature of Hyde, Mr. Utterson had to resort to extreme determination in trying to catch this man Hyde and get to know the truth abut his relationship with Dr. Jekyll. This excerpt is from the second chapter of the story titled "Search for My. Hyde".
