밑줄 친 부분에 들어갈 말로 가장 적절한 것을 고르시오.
The holiday season is a time to give thanks, reflect on the past year, and spend time with family and friends. However, if you’re not careful, it can also be a time you overspend on holiday purchases. People have an innate impulse to overspend, experts say. They are “wired” to be consumers. The short-term gratification of giving gifts to loved ones can eclipse the long-term focus that’s needed to be good with money. That’s where many people fall short. We can overspend because our long-term goals are much more abstract, and it actually requires us to do extra levels of cognitive processing to delay instant gratification. Additionally, consumers may feel ______________________________ because they don’t want to appear “cheap.” Many companies also promote deals during the holidays that can encourage people to spend more than usual.
the social pressure to spend more than they might like

It seems incredible that one man could be responsible for opening our eyes to an entire culture, but until British archaeologist Arthur Evans successfully excavated the ruins of the palace of Knossos on the island of Crete, the great Minoan culture of the Mediterranean was more legend than fact. Indeed its most famed resident was a creature of mythology: the half-man, half-bull Minotaur, said to have lived under the palace of mythical King Minos. But as Evans proved, this realm was no myth. In a series of excavations in the early years of the 20th century, Evans found a trove of artifacts from the Minoan age, which reached its height from 1900 to 1450 B.C.: jewelry, carvings, pottery, altars shaped like bull’s horns, and wall paintings showing Minoan life.
Bringing the Minoan culture to the realm of reality

According to the historians, neckties date back to 1660. In that year, a group of soldiers from Croatia visited Paris. These soldiers were war heroes whom King Louis XIV admired very much. Impressed with the colored scarves that they wore around their necks, the king decided to honor the Croats by creating a military regiment called the Royal Cravattes. The word cravat comes from the word Croat. All the soldiers in this regiment wore colorful scarves or cravats around their necks. This new style of neckwear traveled to England. Soon all upper class men were wearing cravats. Some cravats were quite extreme. At times, they were so high that a man could not move his head without turning his whole body. The cravats were made of many different materials from plaid to lace, which made them suitable for any occasion.
The materials used to make the cravats were limited.
