Answer 1

Alice's actions reveal Lewis Carroll's tone of acceptance in the nonsense world.

Step-by-step explanation:

Alice's actions in the story reveal Lewis Carroll's tone of acceptance in this nonsense world. Despite the strange situation of finding herself in a rowboat with a sheep, Alice accepts it and tries her best to row. She doesn't question why the Sheep cries "Feather!" and instead keeps rowing. Even though Alice initially refuses to row with knitting needles, she eventually adapts to the situation and continues rowing.
