by E. Nesbit (excerpt) It was a very sleek boy, brown and thin and interesting-looking, that knocked at the door of the parlor where Mademoiselle sat reading a yellow-covered book and wishing vain wishes. Gerald could always make himself look interesting at a moment's notice, a very useful accomplishment in dealing with strange grown-ups. It was done by opening his grey eyes rather wide, allowing the corners of his mouth to droop, and assuming a gentle, pleading expression, resembling that of the late little Lord Fauntleroy who must, by the way, be quite old now, and an awful prig. "Entrez!" said Mademoiselle, in shrill French accents. So he entered. "Eh bien?" she said rather impatiently. "I hope I am not disturbing you," said Gerald, in whose mouth, it seemed, butter would not have melted. "But no," she said, somewhat softened. "What is it that you desire?" "I thought I ought to come and say how do you do," said Gerald, "because of you being the lady of the house." He held out the newly-washed hand, still damp and red. She took it. "You are a very polite little boy," she said. "Not at all," said Gerald, more polite than ever. "I am so sorry for you. It must be dreadful to have us to look after in the holidays." Based on the passage, which words best describe Gerald's personality? A. clever and charming B. shy and nervous C. aggressive and rude D. talkative and humorous can i have some help
