Which of the following most logically completes the passage?

Concerned about the 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 negligibe, and the increase has been duly received by all eligible Runagians. Neverthless, many of them are no better off financially than they were before the increase, in large part because___________.

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

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

我自己选的是C，答案给的是E。望好心人指教，谢谢！

这个我看过有人这样解释：E选项说的是政府补贴以前，这些老人的子女会给老人们生活费；但自从有政府救济老人后，子女们可能就不会再给那么多了。

LZ是不是做了OG12或者另外一道类似题，被那道题误导的？我就被骗过, 但停下来仔细想后就发觉E确实是对的.

子女总是给老人刚好能过舒服生活的金额，如果政府补助增加了，那么按照子女的给钱习惯，子女会减少他们对老人的补助，所以总量至少是不变的。因此老人现在的生活并不比以前好（可能和以前相等，可能不如以前）
