The best way to paraphrase the underlined passage from section 5 of Franklin's Daylight Saving is:

People who sleep until noon would be surprised to know that the sun does rise and shine so early.

Explanation:

  1. "People who have never read the almanac have never seen the sunrise." - This suggests that those unfamiliar with the almanac, which often contains sunrise times, might not be aware of when the sun rises. However, it doesn't directly address the surprise element of waking up late and discovering the early sunrise.

  2. "People who don't understand astronomy couldn't understand what time the sun would rise." - This implies a lack of understanding of astronomical concepts, which is not the focus of the original passage. The original passage is more about the surprise of late risers regarding the early sunrise.

  3. "People who sleep until noon would be surprised to know that the sun does rise and shine so early." - This directly captures the essence of the original passage, highlighting the surprise of those who wake up late at the early rising of the sun.
