Reading a concession

Malia que a biblioteca ampliou o horario, algunhas persoas seguen sen poder acudir pola mañá. A student claims that the sentence says the library reduced its opening hours. Another reads it as acknowledging an improvement while retaining a remaining access problem. The exercise asks for evidence from the actual Galician sentence rather than assumptions about a real municipal library. No survey, current timetable or attendance total has been provided. The class must identify the relationship signalled by the opening clause, preserve the restricted expression algunhas persoas and explain what the second clause adds. A personal story about another town could be useful in a separate opinion response, but cannot replace the evidence of this short passage. The teacher also asks whether the text proves that every user is unable to visit at any time.

The second reading preserves the acknowledged extension and the continuing morning access problem. It does not convert some people into all users or claim that hours were reduced.

2. What wording should support an answer?
