We returned home late in the night because our care had a .....
Answer Details
The correct answer is "breakdown." A breakdown refers to a sudden failure or malfunction of a machine or vehicle, which in this case is the car. This could have caused the car to stop working or become unsafe to continue driving, resulting in the need to return home late in the night. The other options do not fit the context of a car failure and have different meanings. "Break through" means to force a passage through an obstacle or barrier, "break off" means to separate or detach from something, "break in" means to enter a building or vehicle forcibly, and "break out" means to escape from confinement.
