86. (24835-!-item-!-188;#058&001244) Whichof the following most logically completes the passage? Concernedabout the financial well-being of its elderly citizens, the government ofRunagia decided two years ago to increase by 20 percent the government-providedpension paid to all Runagians over 65. Inflation in the intervening period has been negligible, and theincrease has been duly received by all eligible Runagians. Nevertheless, many of them are no better offfinancially 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 apension check C. they buy goods whose prices tend torise especially fast in times of inflation D.the pension was increased when the number of elderly Runagians below thepoverty level reached an all-time high E. in Runagia children typically supplementthe income of elderly parents, but only by enough to provide them with acomfortable living
求助：为什么选项C不可以呢？因为老人要购买的东西价格上涨得比通货膨胀快，所以即使补助上升，他们还是感到钱不够用，经济状况也没有好转。 |
