Select the correct text in the passage.
In these excerpts from Little Women by Louisa May Alcott, which sentence describes the personality of one of the sisters?
Margaret, the eldest of the four, was sixteen, and very pretty, being plump and fair, with large eyes, plenty of soft brown hair, a sweet mouth,
and white hands, of which she was rather vain. Fifteen-year-old jo was very tall, thin, and brown, and reminded one of a colt, for she never
seemed to know what to do with her long limbs, which were very much in her way.
***
Amy, though the youngest, was a most important person, in her own opinion at least. A regular snow maiden, with blue eyes, and yellow hair
curling on her shoulders, pale and slender, and always carrying herself like a young lady mindful of her manners. What the characters of the
four sisters were we will leave to be found out.
