The phrase, 'the sun has left the sky' indicates that -

  • A.it is morning
  • B.it is forenoon
  • C.it is afternoon
  • D.it is evening time

Answer: D

The phrase indicates that it is evening time.

The poem begins with tea nearly ready and Leerie coming up the street 'every night at tea time' with a lantern and ladder. A lamplighter lights the lamps when it grows dark, so the sun having left the sky means that evening has come.

Morning, forenoon and afternoon are all times when the sun is up, and no lamps are lit.
