The sense of delayed gratification, of working now for later pleasure, has helped shape the economic behavior of our society. However, that sense is no longer nurtured as consistently in our children as it once was. For example, it used to take a bit of patience to put together the toys that children got in cereal boxes; now the toys come from the boxes whole.
Which of the following is an assumption of the passage above?

Which of the following is an assumption of the passage above?
A.The toys in cereal boxes have changed partly because the economic conditions of our society have improved.
B.The influence of promotion gimmicks on the economic behavior of our society has increased over the years.
C.The toys that used to come in cereal boxes were put together by the same children who played with them.
D.Part of the pleasure of any toy lie in putting the toy together before playing with it.
E.Today's children do not expect a single toy to provide pleasure for a long period of time.
谁能解释下the same children(C。The toys that used to come in cereal boxes were put together by the same children who played with them)是咋回事,难道一定要一样的孩子拼吗,犹豫C和D时还是因为same children不解而排出C,应该是以前那个时代孩纸自己拼,现在这个浮躁而不讲延迟享受的时代,(这一代的)孩纸们都直接从麦片盒里拿到整个玩具了才对吧。

same children 就是说put and play 都是同一个人,排除了别人帮自己put together的likelihood. 主语是the toys
