What can you infer about Mrs. Rachel’s character based on this excerpt from Lucy Maud Montgomery’s Anne of Green Gables?

If Marilla had said that Matthew had gone to Bright River to meet a kangaroo from Australia Mrs. Rachel could not have been more astonished. She was actually stricken dumb for five seconds. It was unsupposable that Marilla was making fun of her, but Mrs. Rachel was almost forced to suppose it.

"Are you in earnest, Marilla?" she demanded when voice returned to her.

"Yes, of course," said Marilla, as if getting boys from orphan asylums in Nova Scotia were part of the usual spring work on any well-regulated Avonlea farm instead of being an unheard of innovation.

Mrs. Rachel felt that she had received a severe mental jolt. She thought in exclamation points. A boy! Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert of all people adopting a boy! From an orphan asylum! Well, the world was certainly turning upside down! She would be surprised at nothing after this! Nothing!

A.
Mrs. Rachel distrusts Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert.
B.
Mrs. Rachel wants to go to Australia to see kangaroos.
C.
Mrs. Rachel prefers the company of little girls to boys.
D.
Mrs. Rachel is awestruck by the idea of an adoption.
