阅读理解提升练(三)　推理判断题 A (2017·浙江五校联考) Research carried out last year stressed the growing challenge facing employers in terms of managing and supporting the UK’s ageing workforce. Figures from the Office for National Statistics have suggested that the number of people aged 65 and over still working has reached 1.19 million—up 25,000 from a year ago.There were also now more people aged 50-74 in work than ever before.However,the overall trend was hiding the fact that 12% people are forced to stop working before reaching state pension age because of ill health or disability.

Its research argued that 66% of managers think the average age of retirement in their organization will increase in the next 5 to 10 years.Yet,36% reported being unaware of anything their organization did to attract,keep and engage older staff.Fewer than a quarter (23%) of employees said they felt supported by their employer with their responsibilities for caring for a loved one. This was perhaps unsurprising,given that only 28% of managers said their organization had formal policies and practices in place to support these employees,argues healthcare distribution director Chris Horlick. 1.According to the passage,who is more likely to leave work before retirement age?
