PASSAGE
Chen Ming tells his friend: '我昨天晚上十二点才睡觉，今天早上六点半就起床了。'
How many hours of sleep did Chen Ming get, according to his statement?
A
Six and a half hours, because from 12:00 midnight to 6:30 AM is exactly 6 hours and 30 minutes.
B
Seven hours, because midnight to 6:30 AM is counted as a full seven-hour block from 12:00 to 7:00, minus 30 minutes.
C
Five and a half hours, because 才 indicates he slept later than planned, reducing effective sleep by one hour.
D
Six hours, because 半 in 六点半 is a grammatical particle and does not add 30 minutes to the time.
