Vincent distributes papers daily so he knows every people or house where papers will be delivered but thomas cannot to do so, so he will take more time than vincent.

Well I reject the first answer due to the fact that if it takes Vincent 50 minutes to deliver newspapers on a street and his house is one end of this really long street (if it takes 50 minutes to cross) then they most like don't live in the same neighborhood. Same street basically doesn't necessarily mean same neighborhood. So I reject A unless the time to deliver the newspapers becomes smaller.

Vincent is ill. So Thomas, his friend, first come to his house and collect the newspapers and then distribute them. So he should take more time than him.
