Question

both texts emphasize a sense of adventure. which detail from text 1 reveals alices sense of adventure?

a. \alice started to her feet, for it flashed across her mind that she had never before seen a rabbit with either a waistcoat - pocket, or a watch to take out of it.\ (paragraph 3)

b. \once or twice she had peeped into her sisters book, but it had no pictures\ (paragraph 1)

c. \(when she thought it over afterwards, it occurred to her that she ought to have wondered at this, but at the time all seemed quite natural)\ (paragraph 3)

d. \alice was beginning to get very tired of sitting by her sister on the bank, and of having nothing to do.\ (paragraph 1)

Explanation:

To determine which detail reveals Alice's sense of adventure, we analyze each option:

• Option A: Alice reacts to an unusual rabbit (with a waistcoat - pocket and watch) by standing up, showing curiosity and a willingness to engage with the unknown, which reflects adventure.
• Option B: This just shows she dislikes a book without pictures, not adventure.
• Option C: This is about her later reflection on not being surprised at the time, not about adventure.
• Option D: This shows she is bored, not adventurous.

Answer:

A. "Alice started to her feet, for it flashed across her mind that she had never before seen a rabbit with either a waistcoat - pocket, or a watch to take out of it." (paragraph 3)
