Pay and productivity, it is generally assumed, should be related. But the relationship seems to weaken【C1】______people get older.
Mental ability declines【C2】______age. That is the same for the brainy and the dim—and not【C3】______for humans: it is measurable even【C4】______fruit flies.【C5】______ minds that keep lively will suffer less than the lazy.
