问题     If you’re struggling to drop pounds, finding out your personality traits may help you make it easier.
    Whether you’re the life of the party, a bookworm, or a night owl, your personality plays a【C1】________large role in your ability to slim down. Follow this guide to discover your personality type and use your own characteristics to lose weight.
    Being a little stuck on yourself may not be such a bad thing when trying to lose weight. "Self-centered people【C2】________to consider their own interests, which could lead them to better conserve their energy and have more willpower to make【C3】________choices," says Heidi Hanna, PhD, a performance coach People-pleasers, on the other hand, may get overly stressed about helping everyone else and find themselves depleted (筋疲力尽的) at the end of the day. This often triggers 【C4】________food choices, says Hanna. Instead, practice being more "selfish" in asking for what you want and sticking to it without feeling【C5】________Meet friends after your workout instead of【C6】________your exercise plans, or ask them to join you.
    Outgoing people incline to allow stress to accumulate to the point that’s known as "amygdala hijack (突发过激反应)," says Hanna. This is where we【C7】________the more basic, primitive part of our brain versus our more human pre-frontal cortex (前额皮层). "The latter allows us to consider our longer-term【C8】________and make healthier choices," says Hanna. This pleasure-based eating has been shown to trigger an addictive response that often【C9】________to overeating high-calorie, high-fat comfort foods. "If you enjoy being the center of【C10】________, try putting yourself in social situations that don’t involve food," suggests Art Markman, PhD, professor of psychology at the University of Texas.

选项
答案 N
解析 动词辨析题。空格位于主语we和宾语part of our brain之间，所以需要填入动词作从句的谓语。空格所在句及前一句意思是：汉娜说，外向的人一般会把压力累积到一个点，这就是所谓的“突发过激反应”。此时，我们会——大脑中更基本的、原始的部分来对抗更具人性的前额皮层。由versus可知，前后两者是对立关系，可以推断是“用”前者对抗后者，即我们要“利用”大脑的某些部分，所以填utilize“利用”。
