Read this excerpt from through the looking-glass by lewis carroll. "i should see the garden far better,” said alice to herself, "if i could get to the top of that hill: and here's a path that leads straight to it – at least, no, it doesn't do that –” (after going a few yards along the path, and turning several sharp corners), "but i suppose it will at last. but how curiously it twists! it's more like a corkscrew than a path! well, this turn goes to the hill, i suppose – no, it doesn't! this goes straight back to the house! well then, i'll try it the other way.” and so she did: wandering up and down, and trying turn after turn, but always coming back to the house, do what she would. indeed, once, when she turned a corner rather more quickly than usual, she ran against it before she could stop herself. based on the excerpt, which statement expresses a possible thesis about the text? as alice begins her journey through the looking-glass land, she loses her way, because she needs to go backward. maybe if alice were from the looking-glass land rather than the real world, she would not keep getting lost. alice needs to understand that traveling in the looking-glass land is very different from traveling in the real world. because alice is an outsider, she has many difficulties navigating through and understanding the rules of the looking-glass land.
