I would have to say that B is the correct answer, because you are contrasting Sara's behaivior compared to Gavin's. However, unlike the last question you asked, I am not 100% sure on this one so wait for a few more answers to be sure.

We know that Gavin is loud and rowdy.
We know that Sarah is not like Gavin.
So in CONTRAST to Gavin, Sarah is reserved.

There y'go!
