the citizens of Claria should follow the study's recommendation and use both air

140) As people grow older, an enzyme known as PEP increasingly breaks down the
neuropeptide chemicals involved in learning and memory. But now, researchers have
found compounds that prevent PEP from breaking neuropeptides apart. In tests, these
compounds almost completely restored lost memory in rats. The use of these compounds
should be extended to students who have poor memory and difficulty in concentrating—
and therefore serious problems in school performance. Science finally has a solution for
problems neither parents nor teachers could solve.

141) In a study of reading habits of Leeville citizens conducted by the University of
Leeville, most respondents said they preferred literary classics as reading material.
However, a follow-up study conducted by the same researchers found that the type of

mystery novel. Therefore, it can be concluded that the respondents in the first study had
misrepresented their reading habits.

142) A recent study shows that people living on the continent of North America suffer 9
times more chronic fatigue and 31 times more chronic depression than do people living
on the continent of Asia. Interestingly, Asians, on average, eat 20 grams of soy per day,
whereas North Americans eat virtually none. It turns out that soy contains
phytochemicals called isoflavones, which have been found to possess disease-preventing
properties. Thus, North Americans should consider eating soy on a regular basis as a
way of preventing fatigue and depression.
