Solution

The opening line of the extract, "Petrol for the car, like food, was an expense we could not avoid" indicates that:

a. Petrol was a necessity, not a luxury, in the Noah household. This is suggested by the comparison of petrol to food, which is a basic necessity.

d. The Noah family had to watch their money carefully. This is implied by the phrase "an expense we could not avoid," suggesting that they had to budget carefully to afford these necessities.

The options b and c are not supported by the text. The text does not suggest that the Noah family had plenty of money (b), nor does it suggest that petrol was an expense that could be avoided (c).
