Explanation:

In "The Great Gatsby", Tom Buchanan is suspicious of Gatsby's wealth and how he acquired it. He suspects that Gatsby made his money through illegal means, specifically bootlegging (illegally selling alcohol during Prohibition), which matches option B. Option A is incorrect as Tom doubts Gatsby's inheritance story. Options C and D are not the main suspicions Tom has about Gatsby's wealth - acquisition method.

B. He thinks Gatsby is a bootlegger.
