GWD-8-Q19

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 ________.







A. They rely entirely on the government pension for their income



B. Runagian banks are so inefficient that it can take up to three weeks to cash a pension check



C. They buy goods whose prices tend to rise especially fast in times of inflation



D. The pension was increased when the number of elderly Runagians below the poverty level reached an all-time high



E. In Runagia children typically supplement the income of elderly parents, but only by enough to provide them with a comfortable living

c答案哪里有问题啊 想不明白

这里的children不是小孩的意思而是子女的意思,在这里子女是已经有收入的人,E选项说老人的收入一般是由子女补充的,而子女对老人收入的补充只保证老人能够过得舒适。
换言之就是老人的政府养老金其实不够老人生活的舒适,所以还有一部分是子女负担,而政府提高了养老金,那么子女可能会减少对老人的收入的补充,最终老人的生活没有得到改善

可是E为什么对啊 怎么觉得是无关选项?
