Read the excerpt from 'The Prairie Whistle': 'Clara stood on the porch, shading her eyes from the afternoon sun. Every few minutes, she glanced down the dirt road that stretched toward the horizon. When her brother Tim asked why she wouldn't come inside to eat, Clara replied, "Grandfather's train was scheduled to reach the station at noon, and Mr. Henderson said he'd bring him by wagon right after."' Which detail best supports the inference that Clara is eager for her grandfather's arrival?

She shades her eyes from the bright afternoon sun. She repeatedly checks the road and declines to go inside to eat. Her brother Tim asks her to come inside for lunch. Mr. Henderson is driving the wagon from the station.
