Question 8 Multiple Choice Question
Question
PASSAGE 3 — POPULATION AGING Country M experienced falling birth rates and rising life expectancy over four decades. The proportion of residents aged sixty-five or older increased, while the proportion of children declined. Policymakers projected that fewer working-age adults would support more retired adults unless labor-force participation or migration changed. At the same time, deaths from infectious disease decreased and chronic conditions such as cardiovascular disease accounted for a larger share of mortality. Community groups proposed accessible transport and neighborhood centers to reduce isolation among older adults. QUESTION 9: Neighborhood centers intended to reduce isolation would most directly strengthen which resource?
