The holidays are a time for eating: pies at Thanksgiving, chocolates for Advent and overflowing gift baskets of cookies and candies through the New Year. If you’re having trouble saying no to the bounty of fat and sugar, give yourself a break: your willpower may be no【S1】______for brain pathways that make overeating—much like drug-taking—feel so good.
In one study by researchers at the University of Pennsylvania, mice that were fed a high-fat diet during the first 20 weeks of life and had become【S2】______showed significant and lasting changes in brain areas【S3】______in reward—making the brain less responsive to the same fatty foods. The researchers said the effects were【S4】______to those seen in drug addiction. In another study from Concordia University in Montreal, researchers found that hungry rats sought heroin when food was not there.
It wouldn’t be quite right to suggest,【S5】______, that food works on the brain’s drug pathways. Rather, it’s the other way around. "Drug addiction is really【S6】______some of these pathways that evolved to promote food【S7】______for survival reasons," Ralph DiLeone, associate professor of psychiatry at Yale University.
So is food really【S8】______, like a drug? That’s still not clear, but it’s likely that compulsive overeating probably bears some【S9】______to addiction. Anyone who’s gotten lost in the【S10】______of polishing off a pint of mint chip ice cream knows how hard it can be to stop. A) obese F) kidnapping K) similar

E) pleasure J) resemblance O) hijacking
【S1】
选项
答案
H
解析
名词辨析题。由空格处的句子结构可知,空格处应为名词形式。上句指出,如果不能拒绝食用大量的油腻食品和糖果,那么就需要节制。冒号在此表示解释,由空格处句子的后半部分可知,暴食让大脑兴奋,此时的意志力会如何。然后结合选项中的名词,be no match for为固定搭配表示“根本不是对手”,由此可以看出match“竞赛;对手”符合句意。
