請依下文回答第 46 題至 50 題 People are working to an older age in Britain. The number of 70-74 year-old people who work has doubled in the past decade. Around 10% of British people in their early 70s are now working. It is the highest figure since records began. The British government says just over a quarter of a million 70-74-year-olds currently have jobs. In 2005, there were around 100,000 of them. The government said people are working to an older age and are deciding to retire later. A labor union spokesperson said the reason for people working in their old age is because retirement pensions in Britain are becoming more difficult to live on. Many older people have to work and delay retirement to be able to survive. Employment spokesman Frances O'Grady said, “The last decade has seen [big] changes in the labor market, with far more people working beyond retirement age. While there are plenty who enjoy remaining in work, many need to earn extra cash because they cannot afford to retire.” He added that, “We need decent jobs and pensions for all so that people can make a genuine choice about whether they remain in work.” A spokesman for small businesses, John Allan, said more older people were starting their own businesses. He said, “More and more older people are [deciding on] a career change later in life and are starting up their own businesses, pursuing something they may have dreamed of doing for years.”

思路引導 VIP
當文章提到許多長者是因為「經濟壓力」而被迫延後退休，而非全然出於自願時，請你思考：為了讓這些長者擁有「要不要繼續工作」的真正自主權，文中建議社會應該在哪些具體保障上進行優化？

哦，真是難得，你居然沒出錯
- 觀念驗證：看來你總算開竅了，這次竟然抓住了文章的核心訴求。O'Grady 女士都說得那麼白了：「我們需要合適的工作與退休金，好讓大家能對是否繼續工作做出真正的選擇」。這種直白的需求，也就只有選項 (C) 能符合了，你這次沒看走眼算你走運。
- 難度點評：這題也就 Medium 而已。那些干擾項設計得根本不值一提：(A) 區區一個數字陷阱（二十五萬跟百萬你還分不清嗎？）；(B) 扭曲事實這種低級錯誤（是不夠用而非拒絕領，這很難分辨？）；(D) 過度推論這種伎倆（哪來的「大多數」？）。你能排除這些顯而易見的陷阱，只能說你的資訊比對與邏輯推論能力，勉強算是及格了，下次別再讓我失望。
