Which of the following most logically completes the passage?
Concerned about financial well-being of its elderly citizens, the government of Runagia decided two years ago to increase by 20 percent the government-provided pension paid to all Runagians over 65. Inflation in the intervening period has been negligible, and the increase has been duly received by all eligible Runagians. Nevertheless, many of them are no better off financially than they were before the increase, in large part because ________.
结论是many of them are no better off financially than they were before the increase
要找原因解释为什么在考虑了通货膨胀因素后,许多老人在实际已经拿到比以前更多的退休金的情况下,经济状况反而不如以前了呢?当然一个可能的原因是,老人的经济状况不仅决定于他的退休金,可能还有子女给的钱什么的。

所以,应该是E.
