Read the excerpt from "Lady Liberty." It was a very good plan given the poor state of repair on Bedloe. Still, Papa and I decided to risk the sagging wooden stairs and climb to the crown. Inside, kerosene lamps were the only light. The air was stale, and it seemed like a place where accidents could happen. Even so, a crowd of people were willing to risk their safety and climb 354 steps for a view of the harbor and city. To me, it seemed as if every stair was a step toward freedom and light.

Which is the best objective summary of this excerpt?

The air inside the Statue of Liberty smelled old and stuffy, which made it hard to climb to the top.
Climbing up to the top of the Statue of Liberty was worth any risk that may have resulted.
There was very little light inside the Statue of Liberty, but people, including the narrator, still climbed to the top.
Despite the conditions inside the Statue of Liberty, many people, including the narrator, climbed up to the top.
