    It has long been known that high-calorie food can act as a balm (镇痛软膏) for anxiety and bad moods, but now a series of new studies published in Psychological Science 【C1】______ that high-calorie food may be a balm for economic anxiety, too, and one that we are prepared to apply whenever we perceive 【C2】______ in the world.
    In one of the experiments, people who were exposed to words suggesting tough times, like "disaster" "suffer" and "struggle", were prompted to eat more high-calorie food and 【C3】______ low-calorie food than a control group did—even though these words were in the background, on a poster, and not 【C4】______ understood.

"The cues I used did not change people’s 【C5】______," says lead author Juliano Laran, a University of Miami marketing professor who 【C6】______ in consumer psychology and self-control , "and I specifically found that people were not looking for pleasure, but rather for food items that can 【C7】______ them fed for longer periods of time."
    The inspiration for the studies came from New York City’s policy of posting calorie counts in restaurants, which Laran noticed did nothing to 【C8】______ the consumption of high-calorie food.

选项
答案 A
解析 根据句子结构可知，不定式符号to后面的空格处应填入动词原形。空格所在句提到，纽约市让餐馆把卡路里量计算表张贴出来的政策，目的是希望人们能减少一些高卡路里食物的摄人，可是事与愿违，因为“劳伦注意到这项政策对______人们对高热量食物的消耗没有一点帮助”。由此可以推断空格处的动词为A项decrease“减少”。
