At present the Hollywood Restaurant has only standard-height tables.
However, many customers come to watch the celebrities who frequent the
Hollywood, and they would prefer tall tables with stools because such seating

(C) a customer of the Hollywood who would choose to sit at a tall table would
be an exception to the generalization about lingering
(D) a restaurant's customers who spend less time at their meals typically
order less expensive meals than those who remain at their meals longer
(E) with enough tall tables to accommodate all the Hollywood's customers
interested in such seating, there would be no view except of other tall tabl

想請問這題的D選項

腦袋轉不過來 麻煩指教 感謝~~~
