Read the passage below and answer the question that follows. "When the sky turned a deep gray, the farmer hurried to the market before noon. He loaded his crates of ripe tomatoes onto his cart, even though the market usually opened at two o'clock. The village elder had warned him that a storm was expected later in the day, and the roads would become impassable. Determined not to lose his harvest, the farmer set off early, hoping to sell before the rain began." Why did the farmer decide to go to the market early? Provide the most plausible reason based on the passage.

Answer Options
