C Correct answer
Explanation

Option C uses 'Let me have' which is a polite request form with 'please,' showing courtesy and respect. Option A is demanding ('Give me'), B is less polite using 'Can you' which sounds more like ability than request, and D is less natural phrasing for a polite request.
