Replace the staff with more qualified personnel.
Replace those who are unable to retrain.
Keep the long-term employees who agree to undergo retraining.

2. In a small Russian town, an electrical substation has failed. To prevent residents from being left without electricity, a new substation must be built. The proposed site would require cutting down an entire grove of healthy trees. Moving the project to another location would cost the city much more and, most importantly, would significantly delay construction. The newly elected mayor must make a difficult decision. What would you advise?

B. Build the substation with minimal harm to the grove.
C. Try to find additional funds to relocate the construction.
D. Relocate the construction site in any case.
3. An extreme tourism instructor is preparing a training site for emergency response personnel. The goal is not only to teach survival skills in hazardous natural conditions, but also to build teamwork and mutual support. The instructor believes that simulators do not provide a real sense of danger and therefore thinks it is necessary to set a small fire in the forest. What would you do in this situation?
A. Set a fire.
B. Choose an area with diseased trees.
C. Use tree mock-ups.
D. Use simulators and preserve the forest.
4. A factory has a small landscaped park in its central courtyard that has been cared for over the past 20 years. Recently, economic conditions require technical modernization and redevelopment of the site, which would mean giving up the park. If you were the factory director, what would you do?
Keep the park.
Try to preserve at least part of the park.
Create a new park in a different location.
Sacrifice the park.
5. A local legislator is known for enjoying a good steak. An election for speaker is coming up, and environmental protection is expected to be a major campaign issue.

Do not give up meat.
Eat meat secretly.
Switch to vegetarianism gradually.
Give up meat completely.
6. You are the chief engineer of a large plant in a small town. To survive the economic crisis, the plant must begin producing a new type of product. Current power capacity is insufficient, so a new electrical substation must be built. However, calculations show that this would interfere with the broadcast frequencies of two local radio stations. In your view, what recommendation should the chief engineer give the plant director who is making the decision?
A. Build it regardless of the consequences.
B. Suggest that the radio stations switch to other frequencies.
C. Build the substation and install a protective shielding screen.
D. Do not build the substation and do not start the new product line.
