  • A9:05
  • B8:55
  • C8:05
  • D2:25

Step-by-Step Solution

Mirror time = 11:60 - actual time = 11:60 - 3:55 = 8:05. The hour hand, almost at 4, appears almost at 8, and the minute hand on 11 appears on 1. (9:05 forgets to borrow the hour; 8:55 flips only the hour hand; 2:25 is the water image.)
Answer: C) 8:05
