Answer:
A) Nighttime was approaching. 
Explanation:
Nighttime was insinuated, but not bluntly or plainly shown.  Implicit means "Implied though not plainly expressed."  SO if we look at the passage and the multiple-choice questions we see that B, C, and D, were all plainly expressed.  They were given a signal, as well as were "explicit" because they didn't hide any information.  The only information we have that "nighttime was approaching" would be that the "sky was getting dark."

The best answer would be "She evinced an interest in drama, so I took her to the play."
The definition for evinced is to show or express clearly. So, this is the only answer that makes sense.
I hope this helps!
