Read the excerpt from Through the Looking Glass, by Lewis Carroll.

In another moment Alice was through the glass, and had jumped lightly down into the Looking-glass room. The very first thing she did was to look whether there was a fire in the fireplace, and she was quite pleased to find that there was a real one, blazing away as brightly as the one she had left behind. "So I shall be as warm here as I was in the old room,” thought Alice: "warmer, in fact, because there'll be no one here to scold me away from the fire. Oh, what fun it'll be, when they see me through the glass in here, and can't get at me!”

Then she began looking about, and noticed that what could be seen from the old room was quite common and uninteresting, but that all the rest was as different as possible. For instance, the pictures on the wall next to the fire seemed to be all alive, and the very clock on the chimney-piece (you know you can only see the back of it in the Looking-glass) had got the face of a little old man, and grinned at her.

Which detail from the passage allows the reader to predict that Alice has stepped into an unusual place?

Beyond one of the sentinels nobody was in sight; the railroad ran straight away into a forest for a hundred yards, then, curving, was lost to view. Doubtless there was an outpost farther along. The other bank of the stream was open ground -- a gentle slope topped with a stockade of vertical tree trunks, loopholed for rifles, with a single embrasure through which protruded the muzzle of a brass cannon commanding the bridge. Midway up the slope between the bridge and fort were the spectators -- a single company of infantry in line, at "parade rest," the butts of their rifles on the ground, the barrels inclining slightly backward against the right shoulder, the hands crossed upon the stock. A lieutenant stood at the right of the line, the point of his sword upon the ground, his left hand resting upon his right. Excepting the group of four at the center of the bridge, not a man moved. The company faced the bridge, staring stonily, motionless. The sentinels, facing the banks of the stream, might have been statues to adorn the bridge. The captain stood with folded arms, silent, observing the work of his subordinates, but making no sign. Death is a dignitary who when he comes announced is to be received with formal manifestations of respect, even by those most familiar with him. In the code of military etiquette silence and fixity are forms of deference.

Rita did not care what her parents had said last night; she was glad things were changing.

How can you tell a rock from a mineral? You can usually tell just by looking at it. Though rocks are made from minerals, they look entirely different. Rocks are usually gray or brown, and they don't have a definite shape. If you took a small hammer and broke the rock apart, you would find that the inside color is not always the same as the outside. Also, rocks feel rough to the touch. While they have no crystals, they can have fossils!

Minerals are usually quite colorful. That beautiful color is the same on the inside and the outside. They are shiny and smooth to the touch. They do have crystals, but they cannot have fossils!
Choose the sentence that BEST summarizes the information.

A) Minerals are more beautiful than rocks.
B) Minerals and fossils are different in color.
C) Rocks and minerals are different in color, how they feel when touched, and the materials that make them.
D) The rock's outside color is sometimes different from its inner color.
