Answer to Question 1

ANSWER: b

Answer to Question 2

One example is BMW. BMW has changed a number of things in their automobile assembly plants to better serve the needs of older workers. For example, they laid new softer floors, added chairs that raise up and down to make doing tasks easier, added larger fonts on computer screens, and provide special shoes. Many companies find that adding older workers is a good option, particularly on a part-time basis. Older workers bring expertise, they tend to be flexible in their hours, and the flexibility of benefits they do or don't need may make them less expensive employees. Working in later life not only provides additional income for older persons, but it promotes social integration as well.
