A student researching aging has taken notes:
• Global populations are aging as lifespans increase • Japan has the world's oldest population • Aging populations strain pension and healthcare systems • Older workers bring experience and institutional knowledge • Automation may help offset reduced workforce
The student wants to present both challenges and opportunities of aging populations.
Japan currently has the world's oldest population.
Aging populations pose challenges for pensions and healthcare, but older workers contribute valuable experience, while automation may offset workforce reductions.
Global populations are aging as life expectancy increases.
Automation technology may help offset reduced workforce numbers.
Correct Answer: B
Choice B. Challenges (pensions) plus opportunities (experience, automation) shows both.
