The correct answer is:
He pays for vacations for all citizens.
Er bezahlt für alle Staatsangehörigen Urlaubsreisen.
Independent study resource, not a BAMF website. Translations are study aids; the exam is in German.
Quick explanation
The state does not pay for holidays.
Why is this correct?
Child benefit, funding for museums and support for athletes are tasks of the state; private holidays are not.
Background
The state supports families, culture and sport. For example, it pays child benefit (Kindergeld), funds museums and theatres and supports athletes. But people have to pay for their own holidays – that is not a task of the state.
Why are the other answers wrong?
Child benefit is paid to parents by the Family Benefits Office (Familienkasse). Museums are funded mainly by the states and cities. Sport is funded at both elite and grassroots level, for example through clubs. All three are tasks of the state.
Memory tip
You are looking for what does not fit: you pay for your holidays yourself.
