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. In general, the more education you have, the more productive your old【C6】________will be.

Academics notice this. It is less clear that employers do. Studies of supervisors’ ratings show no clear correlation【C12】________age and perceived productivity. When other employees’ views are【C13】________into account though, the picture changes; these ratings suggest that workers in their 30s are the【C14】________productive and hardworking,【C15】________scores falling thereafter.

Intellectual occupations are harder to measure, but the picture is the same. Academics seem to publish【C19】________as they age. Painters, musicians and writers show the same tendency.
Their output peaks in their 30s and 40s. The only【C20】________is female writers, who are most productive in their 50s.
