Solution

Old people have less hearing ability, eyesight, and strength. This is because our abilities change due to illness or old age.
To help them with these difficulties, they use walking sticks to improve movement, hearing aids to improve their hearing ability, and spectacles to help their vision.
Kids and other people should also help them in their work and assist them.
