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.

Their output peaks in their 30s and 40s. The only【C20】________is female writers, who are most productive in their 50s.
