Explanation:
She was only 6 years old when the pogrom began, but Frances Flescher remembers everything.
As a little girl, Flescher was part of the substantial Jewish population of the Romanian city of Iasi. But, though 30% of the city’s population was Jewish by 1930, according to Yad Vashem, anti-Semitism spread during that decade, and the country ended up on the Axis side once World War II began. Then, on June 29, 1941, her father said he was going out to buy cigarettes and never returned.
In fact, by then, it was already the second day of the pogrom during which police, soldiers and civilians killed or arrested thousands of Jewish citizens of Iasi. On the heels of bombing of the city by Soviet forces — after which, according to Radu Ioanid’s history of the pogrom, Jews were accused of Soviet collaboration and systematically hunted down by their neighbors — thousands of people were murdered in the streets. Following that massacre, about 4,000 more Jews from Iasi, by Yad Vashem’s count, were put on “death trains.” Packed tightly and sealed, without enough water or even air for those on board, they ran back and forth between stations until more than 2,500 had died.

I have found the excerpt and the choices from another source. I will paste them below:
<span>They laughed at his wild excess of speech, of feeling, and of gesture. They were silent before the maniac fury of his sprees, which occurred almost punctually every two months, and lasted two or three days. They picked him foul and witless from the cobbles, and brought him home . . . . And always they handled him with tender care, feeling something strange and proud and glorious lost in [him]. . . . He was a stranger to them: no one—not even Eliza—ever called him by his first name. He was—and remained thereafter—"Mister" Gant. . . .
</span>A. They spread gossip about his unusual conduct.
B. They consider him a talented man and good friend.
C. They think he is a bit peculiar, yet they revere him.
D. They worry about his excessive behaviors.
The excerpt would tell us that Oliver's neighbors (C) think he is a bit peculiar, yet they revere him.
We know that the neighbors think Oliver is peculiar or strange through the first half of the excerpt and from the line "he was a stranger to them". Despite this strangeness though, we can also infer that the neighbors revere or deeply respect him because they still "handled him with tender care".
