The Burnell children are gifted an elaborate dollhouse by a friend of the family who once stayed with them. They immediately fall in love with the dollhouse, and Kezia especially enjoys the little lamp which sits on one of its tables. When they next go to school, the Burnell children brag left and right about the dollhouse, and they get their entire class's attention. They are allowed to bring any two classmates per day by the house to look at the dollhouse, but they cannot bring the Kelvey children, who come from a family so poor even their teacher treats them differently. Kezia disobeys this rule, and brings the Kelveys by to look at the dollhouse, but she is discovered by her aunt, and the Kelveys are quickly shooed away
Answer:
I haven't read it so I can only guess based on what you've shown us. It sounds as though earlier on in the story, Annemarie wanted to be involved in some sort of potentially dangerous activity. Later on, I assume she witnessed someone else get hurt or realized the true danger of the activity and realized she's actually glad she isn't involved in a harmful way. The inference I can make is that her opinion on the dangerous activity, whatever it may be, has changed due to someone or something else's suffering.
This might not even be correct since I don't know what the reading is from, but I hope this at least helps you make your own inference of whatever the reading was.
