public-health studies and laboratory experiments suggest that, at
every stage of life, traffic fumes exact a measuring toll on mental【M4】______
capacity, intelligence and emotional stability.
Children in areas affected by high levels of emissions, on
average, scored more poor on intelligence tests and were more【M5】______
prone to depression, anxiety and attention problems than children
growing in cleaner air, separate research teams in New York,【M6】______
Boston, Beijing, and Krakow, Poland, found. And older men and
women long exposing to higher levels of traffic-related particles【M7】______

five years to her mental age, other university researchers in Boston【M9】______
reported this year. The emissions may also height the risk of【M10】______
Alzheimer’s disease and speed the effects of Parkinson’s disease.
