Select the correct text in the passage. In this excerpt, which sentence introduces the conflict that develops the theme?

excerpt adapted from
Great Expectations

by Charles Dickens

I followed the candle down, as I had followed the candle up, and she stood it in the place where we had found it. Until she opened the side entrance, I had fancied, without thinking about it, that it must necessarily be night-time. The rush of the daylight quite confounded me, and made me feel as if I had been in the candlelight of the strange room many hours.

“You are to wait here, you boy,” said Estella; and disappeared and closed the door.

I took the opportunity of being alone in the courtyard to look at my coarse hands and my common boots. My opinion of those accessories was not favorable. They had never troubled me before, but they troubled me now, as vulgar appendages. I determined to ask Joe why he had ever taught me to call those playing cards Jacks, which ought to be called knaves. I wished Joe had been rather more genteelly (respectably) brought up, and then I should have been so too.
