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.

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

"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.

答案
L
解析
形容词辨析题。根据句子结构和空格所在句的意思,应填入形容词,表示食物会像毒品一样产生什么效果。备选项中的addicted和addictive两词比较符合题意,addicted表示“有瘾的;沉迷于……的”,addictive表示“使人成瘾的;使人入迷的”,因此,可以推断addictive符合句意。
