In Wonderland anything can be behind any door. Alice opened the door and there she was at the beginning of her adventures again – in the hall with the locked doors and the table with the little key on it.
在奇幻仙境中，门后面可能有任何东西。Alice小心翼翼地打开了门，她发现这正是她刚一开始掉落的地方——一间周围全是门的大厅，里面有张桌子，桌子上面放着一把小钥匙。

I remember that little door and the key! This time I know what to do! I'm finally going to get into the garden!
我记得这扇小门和这把钥匙!这一次我知道该怎么做了!我终于要进入花园里!

Alice已经对在奇幻仙境里经历的身体变化有所了解，这次她先拿到了桌上的钥匙…然后从口袋里掏出一点蘑菇，吃了下去，这是她从毛毛虫那里拿的，不一会儿她就变小了，然后顺利地打开门，进入了花园里。
Alice
Oh, it's so pretty here!
哇!这儿好漂亮啊!
