C#: Possibly a polymorphism function? But not sure

I'm currently working on a lab for class and we were told to make a method in the main form called "DisplayInformation. that accepts a parameter of type Time and then displays the Time objects information" Which doesn't sound difficult to me but we're told to use 2 buttons to access this method. One just goes to the base class and gets the current time and returns it. The other is suppose to go to a derived class. And this is where my problem begins.

private void btnDisplayTime_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    DisplayInformation(time1);


} 

And this is the DisplayInformation function I'm not sure about:

private string DisplayInformation (Time zone)
        {
            time1 = zone;
            time1.displayTime();
           // extTime1.displayTime();
            return "okay";

        }//end of DisplayInformation

When i call DisplayInformation with the first button it'll go just fine. And if i make a call from the second button to this method it'll be fine as well. But i need to be able to pick and choose which class i go to. It's difficult to explain really. I just need to be able to call from each button to that method and get a different output depending on the button. I'm not sure if this would just be an if statement or what.

And the extendedtime class

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
namespace CIS247A_Week_4_Lab_BREWER
{

class ExtendedTime : Time
{

    private string timeZone{get; set;}

    public ExtendedTime() : base()
    {
        timeZone = "CDT";

    }//end of ExtendedTime

    public ExtendedTime(int Hour, int Minute, String TimeZone) :base(Hour, Minute)
    {

        timeZone = TimeZone;
    }//end of ExtendedTime

    public override string displayTime()
    {
        //return base.displayTime();
        MessageBox.Show(base.displayTime() + timeZone);
        return base.displayTime() + timeZone;
    }//end of DisplayTime

}//end of ExtendedTime class

}//end of namespace

And just for time sake the section of the form i'm working on:

public partial class frmTime : Form
    {
        Time time1;
        ExtendedTime extTime1;


    public frmTime()
    {
        //DateTime Ctime = DateTime.Now; // Use current time
       // Ctime = new DateTime();
       // label1.Text = Ctime.ToString();
        InitializeComponent();
        time1 = new Time();
        extTime1 = new ExtendedTime();
    }


    private void DisplayInformation (Time zone)
    {
        time1 = zone;
       // time1.displayTime();
        extTime1.displayTime();
        //return "okay";

    }//end of DisplayInformation
    //exit Button (btnExit)
    private void btnExit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        Application.Exit();//closes the program

    }

    private void btnDisplayTime_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        DisplayInformation(time1);


    }

---

In your DisplayInformation class if you are passing in a Time object from one click handler and an extTime object from the other handler then you should be able to just call the displayTime method.

private void DisplayInformation (Time zone)
{
    zone.displayTime();
}

on the Time one it will obviously call the base method. On the extTime one despite the fact you are treating it as a Time object it will call the overridden method.
