Answer 1

Opening a large jar of Spanish olives. Since the lids are large it is difficult for some hands to open as the lids are "tight." Try [great for mime frustration] and try again. Held under the arm near the arm-pit. Held between the legs with groans. Finally, tap all around the lid with a spoon which loosens the lid-- and, of course, the spoon is used to extract an olive which is with pleasure consumed.

Peanut butter, knife- with handle reversed for hammering, and a banana.
After opening, knife is used to spread peanut butter on banana which has been peeled, of course, with great anticipation.

Maybe that helps along the idea line ~~ Luck.

Answer 2

You can try to explain or demonstrate simple tasks...i've given some of the tasks.

1) To drive a car and park it.
2) Gardening...namely pulling weeds and watering the plants
3) Packing your things to go on vacation.

I don't know how much time you have...but what I thinks your inspector is trying to test is your ability to act.

Hope this was helpful
