问题     Ever dipped into the biscuit tin then decided you’ve ruined your diet so you may as well eat the lot? Or thought that because you didn’t get a promotion this year,you’re destined for failure in your career? You’re not alone. Even the most optimistic person is not immune to negative thoughts,but for some,the destructive chatter of self-doubt can be cruel.
    Psychologists now believe that just as feeling embarrassed can cause a physical reaction (blushing) so self-destructive thoughts can lead to ill-health,weight-gain,poor skin and misery.
    Psychiatrist Dr. Daniel Amen has spent a lifetime studying how thoughts influence our appearance, energy and diet success. His studies have revealed that by flipping negative thoughts to positive,we can transform our lives for the better.
    In his new book Change Your Brain, Change Your Body, Dr. Amen identifies the infuriatingly (令人发怒地) common scourge (祸害): the ANT (Automatic Negative Thought),which he describes as "the little voices that pop into your head and tell you you’re not good enough,not thin enough,a rubbish daughter,mother,worker". A few ANTS,he says,can be managed. But he warns to watch out for ANT plague—when thousands of negative thoughts start to take over.
    The answer,he says,lies in simple ANT-eater techniques that stop the bugs in their tracks,ensuring they never return. "Your brain is a powerful organ," he says. "If you see yourself as fat,old,wrinkled or forgetful,you boost production of the stress hormone which affects your health,your weight and your mind.
    " Negative thoughts can make negative things happen. In the never-ending battles, remedy lies in building your own arm-shop of ANT-eater solutions.
    " Develop an ANT-eater in your brain that can eat up all the negative thoughts thait come into your head. Whenever you feel mad,sad or frustrated,write down your ANT,then write down what your ANT-eater would say to that ANT to kill it.
    " Make a pact with yourself to not listen to your ANTS. If you do this, your thoughts will translate into actions and those actions will cause your body to transform into the body you’ve always wanted. Your body follows your mind. It has no choice. " [br] Dr. Amen thinks the negative thoughts in your brain can increase the production of______.
选项
答案 the stress hormone
解析 本题考查负面想法带来的产物。定位句指出，负面想法会增加脑内压力荷尔蒙的产生。题干中的negative thoughts是对原文中的see yourself as fat，old，wrinkled or forgetful的概括论述，而increase是原文中boost的同义转述，故答案为the stress hormone。
