The heart—that【C1】______seat of the soul? Not quite. The stomach? You’re getting warmer. Would you believe it’s the large and small intestine(肠),【C2】______known as the gut? More specifically, it’s the trillions of bacteria—the microbiota(微生物群)—that live in your gut. Each of us【C3】______up to four and a half pounds of bacteria around in our guts at any given time.

选项
答案 H
解析 空格位于定冠词the和形容词next之后，且动词knew之后的从句中缺少主语成分，故应填入名词作主语。上文提到肠子对人们的情绪有影响，所以作者说，谁曾想到心理健康的新领域会转移至卫生间呢，这是一种幽默的说法，故空格处应填入H)frontier“前沿，领域”。
