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 J
解析 动词辨析题。分析句子结构可知，that引导的定语从句修饰response，关系代词that代替先行词response作从句的主语，空格处需要填入动词作从句的谓语，并且和to搭配，后跟doing sth．。本句指出，调查显示这种因开心而胃口大增的现象会引发上瘾反应，并且经常会________过度食用高热量、高脂肪的慰藉食物。由句意可知，上瘾反应与过度食用高热量、高脂肪食物是因果关系，所以空格处应填入含有“引起”含义的动词，可知是causes或leads。虽然这两个动词是近义词，但是cause是及物动词，后面直接跟宾语，而lead是不及物动词，常见搭配是lead to(doing)sth．，所以空格处填leads“导致”。
