Which of the following is the most logical completion of the passage below?

Many companies have been pushing for a three-week extension of daylightsaving time, which would mean that the sun would continue to set an hour later during the fall months. The owners of a chain of convenience stores, for example, expect to gain $15 million a year in additional sales, mostly from people who tend to______

(A) stay away from these stores after dark

(B) stay outdoors during the fall months

(C) spend more money in the fall

D) spend less money in the fall

(E) shop at these stores when they are pressed for time

A是正确答案。我怎么都想不明白为啥是A...

sun 会set的比平时晚 1 小时，所以这些stores 就可以赚到更多的钱，从“天黑之后就stay away from stores”的人身上赚到额外的钱??

这不是挺好做的嘛，最关键的是题干第一句我不能理解??太阳落下怎么控制？全体把钟调快一小时？

daylight saving是指夏令时把表调快一个小时，这样人起来得早一个小时。文中说的把夏令时延长三周，这样的话人们还是会早一个小时起来，对于天黑以后就不逛商店的人来说多了早起的一个小时可以逛商店。（表是否调快不影响日落的时间）。我是这么理解的
