B. "watch the running of the bulls and the bullfights"

Explanation:

Option B is the correct answer.

In paragraph 5, as the author uses the word, hedonistic, he further explains it by saying they "watch the running of the bulls and the bullfights". This is closly in meaning to hedonistic. It has to do with pursuit of pleasure.

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

Bobo is, as his name suggests, somewhat dimwitted, but he is basically honest and appears to be a loyal friend.
