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 another study from Concordia University in Montreal, researchers found that hungry rats sought heroin when food was not there.

选项
答案

解析
形容词辨析题。空格前的were表明,空格处需要填入形容词或动词。空格处的句子前半部分是说油腻食物对大脑的影响,后半部分是说毒品对大脑产生的影响,再结合选项中的形容词和动词,可以推断similar符合题意,表示两种效果相似。因此,similar“相似的,类似的”是正确答案。
