Question

Read the passage.

The children arrived from December 1938 to September 1939. With the outbreak of war, borders were closed and all transports ceased. The most reported reason for the ending of transports was that the R.C.M. had run out of funds. Rising unemployment, anti-semitism and the concern that German refugees were now regarded as "enemy aliens" were issues which concerned the Government. Britain's policy of internment came into force in May 1940. This affected older child refugees who had reached the age of sixteen before 1940. These children found work in agriculture and domestic service or joined the Pioneer Corps and other Auxiliary Services. Only a small number were interned.

Which sentence from the passage best supports the inference that refugee children were not entirely welcomed in Britain?

"These children found work in agriculture and domestic service or joined the Pioneer Corps and other Auxiliary Services."


"Rising unemployment, anti-semitism and the concern that German refugees were now regarded as "enemy aliens" were issues."


"The most reported reason for the ending of transports was that the R.C.M. had run out of funds."


'With the outbreak of war, borders were closed and all transports ceased."

Step-by-step explanation:

The British policy of Internment has separated three categories of “Enemy Aliens”, to use as the interns in many industries who were typically above the age of 16. These sudden child refugees were not welcomed in Britain. Children had Passport and visa restrictions and children below 17 years younger entered Britain with a ‘white card’. There were also ‘guarantors’ who covered the re-emigration costs of children
