Answer:

A) Offering recipients of unemployment insurance benefits a cash bonus if they find a new job within a specified number of weeks

B) Improving a widely used job-search website so that it matches workers to job vacancies more effectively

Explanation:

Unemployment insurance benefits are necessary o help people who are going through a very hard time, but they have a negative side effect, which is reducing job search efforts.

To contrasts this negative side effect, a bonus can be handed out to those who find a new job after a certain amount of time, e.g. 3-4 months. That could serve as an incentive to accept jobs that probably wouldn't be considered enticing, but any job is better than no job at all.

The more job search tools that can be provided to unemployed people, the better. Whatever can help them find a job faster is welcome, not only for the government, but also for themselves. Being unemployed is not something that makes people happy.
