    The answer is Kipling was offered many literary awards, but accepted only one.

    Explanation:

    When we say someone is humble, we mean he is a modest person which means that he is aware that he is not the most important person in the world, he is self-aware about his own importance, he often underestimates his own value.

    The first, the second and the last sentence have nothing to do with his characteristics, they are only stating facts about his life.

    From the third sentence we see that although he was offered many awards, he did not accept them showing us his modesty.

    Some details about Rudyard Kipling:

    - declined knighthood in 1890 (again in 1903; his wife stated that Kipling felt he could do his work better without it)

    - declined the Order of Merit in 1921 (again in 1924).
