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.

选项
答案

解析
形容词辨析题。空格前的were表明,空格处需要填入形容词或动词。空格处的句子前半部分是说油腻食物对大脑的影响,后半部分是说毒品对大脑产生的影响,再结合选项中的形容词和动词,可以推断similar符合题意,表示两种效果相似。因此,similar“相似的,类似的”是正确答案。
