In "The Nose" by Nikolai Gogol, what evidence from the text suggests that

Kovaloff has not learned anything from the experience of losing his nose?
O A. For sheer joy he was on the point of performing a dance
barefooted across his room, but the entrance of Ivan prevented
him.
O B. As he returned, he met Madame Podtotchina with her daughter.
He accosted them, and they responded very graciously.
O C. He returned joyfully, and regarded with a satirical expression two
officers who were in the shop, one of whom possessed a nose not
much larger than a waistcoat button.
D. Then quite gently, with infinite precaution, he raised two fingers in
the air in order to take hold of it by the extremity, as he was
accustomed to do. "Now then, take care!" Kovaloff exclaimed.

Kovalev woke up one morning to a smooth patch of skin in place of his nose. Horrified and confused, Kovalev uses handkerchief to disguise absence of a nose as he attempts to go about his day. He lost His nose and when he got back his nose, he was still arrogant about it and compare his nose with others.
