Complete the summary using the given list of words
14 &15. Research carried out by scientists in the United States has shown that the proportion of people over 65 suffering from the most common age-related medical problems is (14)¼¼¼.and that the speed of this change is (15)¼¼¼.
Keywords: the United States, 65, most common age-related medical problems, speed, change
In paragraph 2, the writer discusses the health of the over 65 age group. The writer says: “Researchers ¼.. sayarthritis, high blood pressure and circulation problems – the major medical complaints in this age group -are troubling a smaller and smaller proportion every year. ¼¼¼the rate at which diseases are declining continues to accelerate.”

+ to accelerate = to increase
So the missing word in number 14 and 15 is “falling” and “increasing”, respectively.
