Answer
A
implicit details about how the speaker feels about books.
B
implicit details about how the speaker views magazines.
C
explicit details about how the library items are arranged.
D
explicit details about how the card catalog is organized.

Explanation

The lines directly describe where items are located in the library: the card catalog is to the left, newspapers are on the right, and magazines face out from the wall. These are explicit details about the arrangement of library items, not clues about the speaker’s feelings or how the card catalog itself is organized. The correct choice is “explicit details about how the library items are arranged.”
