Read the excerpt from Alice in Wonderland by Alice Gerstenberg. Which two descriptions capture the Caterpillar’s character?

(Is a garden of high, very conventional and artificial looking flowers. On a large mushroom sits the Caterpillar smoking a hookah. Alice is whirling about trying to get her equilibrium after her fall. She goes to the mushroom timidly and, conscious of her size, for her chin reaches the top of the mushroom, she gazes at the Caterpillar wonderingly. He looks at her lazily and speaks in a languid voice.)

CATERPILLAR: Who are you?

ALICE: I—I hardly know, sir, just at present. The Queen frightened me so and I’ve had an awfully funny fall down a tunnel or a sort of well. At least I know who I was when I got up this morning, but I think I must have been changed several times since then.

CATERPILLAR: What do you mean by that? Explain yourself.

ALICE: I can’t explain myself, I’m afraid, Sir, because I’m not myself, you see. Being so many different sizes in a day is very confusing.

CATERPILLAR: You! Who are you?

ALICE: I think you ought to tell me who you are, first.

CATERPILLAR: Why?
