    C). He focuses often on making friends because he has none.

    Explanation:

    As per the question, the given description reveals that 'Stanley often focuses on making friends because he has none.' His isolation and solitude are reflected through the description where he pretends that he was going to camp for fun and games while he was actually going to make friends ('maybe he'd make some friends ... at least he'd get to swim'). Stanley had no one around to play with and therefore, he used to play with 'stuffed animals'. Thus, he is almost in a desperate need to make some friends and therefore, he focuses on it only instead of fun and games to overcome his solitude. Hence, option C is the correct answer.
