I nead help right now Read the passage.

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.

Each year presented the R.C.M. with new challenges which meant changes in policies and changes within the organisation. Questions of finance, welfare and religious upbringing were issues which aroused criticism and conflict. Although its main aim was to re-unite the refugee children with their parents, as the war continued and news of the persecution and mass murder of the Jews reached the United Kingdom, it became apparent this was becoming increasingly unlikely. Re-emigration became uncertain.
Which excerpt from the passage best supports the inference that the reunification of refugee children with their families was uncertain?

"…as the war continued and news of the persecution and mass murder of the Jews reached the United Kingdom, it became apparent this was becoming increasingly unlikely."

"Questions of finance, welfare and religious upbringing were issues which aroused criticism and conflict."

"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."

Not 100% sure but...

I wanna say B. "Questions of finance, welfare and religious upbringing were issues which aroused criticism and conflict."

I say that because it's the one thing that mentions that conflicted their choice.

Answer:

The correct answer is "…as the war continued and news of the persecution and mass murder of the Jews reached the United Kingdom, it became apparent this was becoming increasingly unlikely."

Step-by-step explanation:

The passage is divided in two paragraphs; the first one is about child refugees and how used to live around 1940; the second one refers to the R. C. M. refers to the Radio Counter-Measures a secretive radio intelligence unit that provided counter-messages against German army.

Since the question is asking about reunification of refugee children with their families the first option is correct: it refers to something that was becoming unlikely; the subject that starts that clause is it in substitution of the main aim of R.C.M. which was this reunion, so A is the correct answer.
