Review the passage. The majority of children had "guarantors" who would cover the re-emigration costs. These guarantors were mostly people who had some kind of connection with the families of the refugees or who had responded to the many advertisements in the newspaper, the Jewish Chronicle from families seeking help. But, at a time of uncertainty in employment and with the country on the brink of war, few households could pay the sum of £50 required, the equivalent of ​ £2000 ​ today. Financing the "unguaranteed" children, those who did not have a previously arranged place of stay, became the responsibility of the Movement for the Care of Children in Germany, later known as the Refugee Children's Movement. The R.C.M. relied on charitable donations alone as it had been previously agreed with the Home Secretary that no refugee child would become a burden on state finances. 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. Which excerpt from the passage best supports the inference that the Kindertransport operated under a financial strain?
(a)"The most reported reason for the ending of transports was that the R.C.M. had run out of funds."
(b)"The R.C.M. relied on charitable donations alone as it had been previously agreed with the Home Secretary."
(c)"…with the country on the brink of war, few households could pay the sum of ​ £50 ​ required, the equivalent of ​ £2000 ​ today."
(d)"Financing the "unguaranteed" children…became the responsibility of the Movement for the Care of Children in Germany, later known as the Refugee Children's Movement."
