Which sentence from the excerpt from George Bernard Shaw’s Pygmalion suggests that Henry Higgins has already formed a negative opinion of Eliza Doolittle? HIGGINS: (Very well, then, what on earth is all this fuss about?) The girl doesn't belong to anybody—is no use to anybody but me. (He goes to Mrs. Pearce and begins coaxing). (You can adopt her, Mrs. Pearce: I'm sure a daughter would be a great amusement to you.) Now don't make any more fuss. Take her downstairs; and—

MRS. PEARCE: But what's to become of her? Is she to be paid anything? Do be sensible, sir.

HIGGINS: Oh, pay her whatever is necessary: put it down in the housekeeping book. (Impatiently) What on earth will she want with money? (She'll have her food and her clothes.) She'll only drink if you give her money.

LIZA (turning on him): Oh you are a brute. It's a lie: nobody ever saw the sign of liquor on me. (She goes back to her chair and plants herself there defiantly).

PICKERING (in good-humored remonstrance): Does it occur to you, Higgins, that the girl has some feelings?

HIGGINS (looking critically at her): Oh no, I don't think so. (Not any feelings that we need bother about.) (Cheerily) Have you, Eliza?

LIZA: I got my feelings same as anyone else.

A: Very well, then, what on earth is all this fuss about?

B: You can adopt her, Mrs. Pearce: I'm sure a daughter would be a great amusement
to you.

C: She'll have her food and her clothes.

D: Not any feelings that we need bother about.
