Read the excerpt below and answer the question.

"No sight so sad as that of a naughty child," he began, "especially a naughty little girl. Do you know where the wicked go after death?"

"They go to hell," was my ready and orthodox answer.

"And what is hell? Can you tell me that?"

"A pit full of fire."

"And should you like to fall into that pit, and to be burning there for ever?"

"No, sir."

"What must you do to avoid it?"

I deliberated a moment; my answer, when it did come, was objectionable: "I must keep in good health, and not die."

    Answer: D) Her independence.

    Explanation: In the given excerpt, we can see Jane involved in a religious conversation about hell, in this conversation we can see revealed her independence, because even though she knows the Bible, and what it teaches about hell, she interprets it in a very unique and independent way, we can see that when she is asked what she must do to avoid going to hell and she answers ""I must keep in good health, and not die."
