Mental ability declines with age. That is the same for the brainy and the dim—and not 【B2】______for humans: it is measurable even for fruit flies.【B3】______minds that keep lively will suffer less than the lazy. In general, the more education you have, the more productive your old【B4】______will be.

But
解析
