Read the excerpt from Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll. “I can't stand this any longer!” she cried as she jumped up and seized the table-cloth with both hands: one good pull, and plates, dishes, guests, and candles came crashing down together in a heap on the floor.

“And as for YOU,” she went on, turning fiercely upon the Red Queen, whom she considered as the cause of all the mischief – but the Queen was no longer at her side – she had suddenly dwindled down to the size of a little doll, and was now on the table, merrily running round and round after her own shawl, which was trailing behind her.

At any other time, Alice would have felt surprised at this, but she was far too much excited to be surprised at anything NOW. “As for YOU,” she repeated, catching hold of the little creature in the very act of jumping over a bottle which had just lighted upon the table, “I'll shake you into a kitten, that I will!”

Which word best describes how someone having Alice’s experience in the excerpt would feel?

angry
confused
amused
peaceful
