B Correct answer
Explanation

The relative pronoun 'which' is used for things/animals, but 'who' must be used for people. Since 'fools' refers to human beings, the correct pronoun is 'who'. The clause should read 'fols who are not aware' not 'fools which are not aware'. This is a basic relative pronoun rule.
