【阅读理解】The problem of leisure is new. Until very recent times people worked each day to the limit of their strength. Of course there were always a privileged few who had leisure; but most men had to work 12, 14, or even 16 hours a day, six days a week. As late as 1840 the average factory worker labored 72 hours a week. “Sunup to sundown” was the farmer’s day, or as another phrase puts it, “from can to can’t.”
The phrase “from can to can’t” means ______.
A、from beginning to end
B、from birth to death
C、from morning to night
D、from time to time
【正确答案】：C
【题目解析】：从本段最后一句话可知，这个短语与“Sunup to sundown”同义，即日出到日落，也就是从早到晚。
