[填空题]You hear the same complaint all the time as people get older: “My memory is terrible.” Is it all in the mind, or do real changes take place in the brain with age to justify such grumbling (抱怨) The depressing answer is that the brain’s cells, the neurons, die and decline in efficiency with age.

In the 1930s unemployment had averaged 18.2 percent; in the 1950s it was 4.5 percent.
