the correct answer is C

c. special-purpose governments are seldom found in modern times.

This is because the paragraph asserts, though abstractly of the benefits of general purpose governemnts and seems to be in favour of general purpose governemnts over special purpose one. Essentially, the sentiment is true because in modern times most local governments can be classified as general purpose.
