Question

Read the following statement:

“Individuals who are going through this process may need a period of adjustment because they feel like they don’t have a place to go anymore.”

Choose the term that best fits the statement.

a.
Alzheimer's disease
c.
dependency
b.
retirement
d.
gerontology

Answer 1

Answer: b. retirement

Step-by-step explanation: When retiring after years of a working life, there is usually a period in the person's life in which the inertia of having a place where you have to go daily continues, clashing with the new "freedom" of retirement. Dependency and gerontology have nothing to do with having or not having a place to go, while Alzheimer's disease implies permanent memory loss.

Answer 2

The following statement " Individuals who are going through this process may need a period of adjustment because they feel like they don't have a place to go anymore." is about retirement. When a person retires after years of work, they are worried about the future.
