Q

Daylight savings time is a form of zone time that adopts the time __________.

🔍 Key Concepts

• Zone time and how time zones are spaced around the earth • What happens to local clock time when we "spring forward" for daylight savings • Relationship between east/west time zones and whether local time is later or earlier

💭 Think About

• Think about whether daylight savings makes your clock read a later time or an earlier time compared to standard zone time • If you move one time zone to the east, is the local clock time ahead or behind you? What about moving one time zone to the west? • Match what daylight savings does to your clock with which direction (east or west) would cause that same effect in zone time

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear whether daylight savings makes noon on the clock come earlier or later than the sun says noon should be • Remember that time zones to the east are ahead in time; time zones to the west are behind • Confirm whether daylight savings imitates being in a zone that is ahead of you or behind you in time
