Editorial: Our city's public transportation agency is facing a budget shortfall. The fastest growing part of the budget has been employee retirement benefits, which are exceptionally generous. Unless the budget shortfall is resolved, transportation service will be cut, and many transportation employees will lose their jobs. Thus, it would be in the employees’ best interest for their union to accept cuts in retirement benefits.

Which of the following is an assumption the editorial's argument requires?

我想请问一下金栩竹老师,这道题我错选了c。在bc中纠结,选择了c。我的思考过程是,主句主语是minnow,所以为了形成对比in contrast to后面应该跟fish,留bc。但是b中,whose一般形容人的,c中“that...”可以看作修饰所以也是some fish和minnow形成比较,选择c。请金老师解答一下 谢谢!
