Answer:

<u>Option c. Based on the excerpt, it can be inferred that Stanley's character is respectful.</u>

Explanation:

By reading the excerpt from "Holes" it can be inferred that Stanley's character is respectful, as when being asked a question and answering it, he quickly adds the words "Mr. Sir" in order to show respect towards the man that just talked to him. The phrase" then hastily added" reinforces that Stanley is kind and respectful towards others.

"Holes" is a young-adult novel written by American author Louis Sachar, and first published on August 20th, 1998. It tells the story of Stanley, a young boy whose family has been cursed a hundred years ago by a one-legged gypsy. The plot not only tells Stanley's family story but also his own, as he arrives to a juvenile detention facility that will shape his character and change him completely.
