I would say D. because of how scrawny is a negative word.

An example:
Skinny, thin<span>, and slender</span><span>.  </span><span>These three words all mean having less weight on one's body than what might be considered average.  But the connotations differ since the suggested meanings of </span><span>skinny </span><span>and </span>thin <span>are often more negative than </span>slender<span>, with </span>skinny potentially the most negative of the three<span>.

It is the same for scrawny, thin, petite, and little. </span>

What evidence from "To Build a Fire" might lead you to inference?
Dmitrij [34]

In "To Build A Fire" by Jack London, the man is arrogant and overconfident. Of the four passages, this can be most inferred from passage C. Passage C reads:

"Those old-timers were rather womanish, some of them, he thought. All a man had to do was to keep his head, and he was all right. Any man who was a man could travel alone."

This clearly shows that the man thought he was more intelligent than the older generation from the area that advised him not to travel alone when the temperature was 50 degrees below zero. It was 75 degrees below, but he thought he could outwit nature. As he was freezing to death, he realized he was wrong, but it was too late. He was overconfident and that ultimately led to his death.
