Read the excerpt from Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll. “I won't be introduced to the pudding, please,” Alice said rather hastily, “or we shall get no dinner at all. May I give you some?”

But the Red Queen looked sulky, and growled “Pudding – Alice; Alice – Pudding. Remove the pudding!” and the waiters took it away so quickly that Alice couldn't return its bow.

However, she didn't see why the Red Queen should be the only one to give orders, so, as an experiment, she called out “Waiter! Bring back the pudding!” and there it was again in a moment like a conjuring-trick. It was so large that she couldn't help feeling a LITTLE shy with it, as she had been with the mutton; however, she conquered her shyness by a great effort and cut a slice and handed it to the Red Queen.

Which life experience best connects to the theme in the excerpt?

standing up to a bully
sharing a meal with a friend
moving to a new neighborhood
shopping for new clothes
