Read the excerpt from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll.
Alice was not hurt a bit, and she jumped up on to her feet in a moment: she looked up, but it was all dark overhead; before her was another long passage, and the White Rabbit was still in
sight, hurrying down it. There was not a moment to be lost: away went Alice like the wind, and was just in time to hear it say, as it turned a corner, "Oh my ears and whiskers, how late it's
getting She was close behind it when she turned the corner, but the rabbit was nowhere to be seen: she found herself in a long, low hall, which was lit up by a row of lamps hanging from the
roof.
There were doors all round the hall, but they were all locked; and when Alice had been all the way down one side and up the other, trying every door, she walked sadly down the middle
wondering how she was ever to get out again.
Suddenly she came upon a little three-legged table, all made of solid glass; there was nothing on it except a tiny golden key, and Alice's first though was that it might belong to one of the doors
on the hall; but, alas! Either the locks were too large, or the key was too small, but at any rate it would not open any of them. However, on the second time round, she came upon a low curtain
she had not noticed before, and behind it was a little door about fifteen inches high: she tried the little gold key in the lock, and to her great delight it fitted!
Which of the following lines implies that Alice does not easily give up?
O Either the locks were too large, or the key was too small, but at any rate it would not open any of them,
O However, on the second time round, she came upon a low curtain she had not noticed before...
O...she walked sadly down the middle wondering how she was ever to get out again.
O She was close behind it when she turned the corner.
