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.

解析
名词辨析题。由空格处的句子结构可知,空格处应为名词形式。上句指出,如果不能拒绝食用大量的油腻食品和糖果,那么就需要节制。冒号在此表示解释,由空格处句子的后半部分可知,暴食让大脑兴奋,此时的意志力会如何。然后结合选项中的名词,be no match for为固定搭配表示“根本不是对手”,由此可以看出match“竞赛;对手”符合句意。
