Explanation:

According to a different source, this is the passage that comes with this question:

Read the excerpt from "Benin Plaque: The Oba with Europeans."

These were enormous and belief-shattering ideas for many people in the nineteenth century, but time was also changing in a much more day-to-day, or rather hour-to-hour, way. Thanks to clockmakers like Earnshaw, precise and reliable clocks and watches became ever more affordable. Before long the whole of Britain was running by the clock, and the measurement of time had been severed from the natural cycle of days and seasons. The clock ruled every aspect of life - shops and schools, pleasure and work. As Charles Dickens wrote, 'There was even railway time observed in clocks, as if the sun itself had given in.'

In this text, we are able to gain some information about the ways in which people's understanding of time changed as a consequence of the invention of clocks. Initially, people had a rough idea of the passage of time in a day, but this did not need to be exact. However, with the rise of cities and industry, reliable clocks made it easier to be more organized by hours. This transformed people's understanding of time, and led to them embracing standardized time.
