(") are quotation marks, we use them them by quoting someone for example, in a story it would say...

"I dont want to go!" said Bob.

(') is an apostorphe. You can use them in quotes for example

" 'I dont want to go!' said Bob."

Here I am quoting the the Bob statement.

The apostrophe can also be used in the ommison of letter for a word for example

~don't=do not

~won't

~wouldn't

creativ13 [48]
The best answer here is the last one, that he interacts easily with both his superiors and the drivers. In the excerpt, we see how the narrator is able to talk with the officers with ease and then how he goes to the drivers with that same ease.

If we look at the other answers, we can see that they don't work. The first one doesn't make much sense as the narrator shows no preference towards either set of people. The second choice makes no sense because the narrator does not ask the officers for cigarettes. The third choice also does not make sense because there is no hint of derision from the narrator to the officers or drivers.
