Question

read the following passage: kovaloff was completely puzzled; he did not know what to do, and still less what to think. at this moment he heard the pleasant rustling of a lady's dress, and there approached an elderly lady wearing a quantity of lace, and by her side her graceful daughter in a white dress which set off her slender figure to advantage, and wearing a light straw hat. behind the ladies marched a tall lackey with long whiskers. kovaloff advanced a few steps, adjusted his cambric collar, arranged his seals which hung by a little gold chain, and with smiling face fixed his eyes on the graceful lady, who bowed lightly like a spring flower, and raised to her brow her little white hand with transparent fingers. he smiled still more when he spied under the brim of her hat her little round chin, and part of her cheek faintly tinted with rose-colour. but suddenly he sprang back as though he had been scorched. he remembered that he had nothing but an absolute blank in place of a nose, and tears started to his eyes. nikolai gogol, "the nose" in this passage from "the nose," what can you infer about kovaloff's character? a. that he wants to be respected for his hard work b. that he wants to fall in love before he gets married c. that he is angry when the young girl makes fun of him d. that he is vain and cares too much about his appearance
