Tasmania, Queensland and South Australia have had irregular plans, often changing their dates due to politics or festivals. For example, in 1992, Tasmania extended daylight saving by an extra month while South Australia began extending daylight saving by two weeks for the Adelaide Festival. Special daylight saving plans were made during the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games.

What can we learn about DST in some Australian states?
A. It doesn�t have fixed dates. B. It is not used in festivals.
C. Its plan was changed in 2000. D. It lasts for two weeks.

I know answer A is right according to the text. But I don't know why C is wrong since it is mentioned in the last sentence.

Hi jasonlulu_2000,

C is part of an example of the main idea that DST is not fixed in some Australian states.

So C is also right, isn't it?

Thanks

No,

C is not the main idea, it is only an example. A is the answer for the main idea. The main idea that DST is not fixed in some Australian states.
