amateur Share
An amateur is a person who does something for enjoyment, not money, like an amateur who paints as a hobby but earns a living another way.
The adjective amateur often describes a pastime, like an amateur sports league that people join to get exercise and socialize together. Or it can have a negative meaning and describe something that's poorly done. If your guests leave your dinner table and stop for fast food on the way home, you may be ashamed of your amateur cooking skills. Amateur originated as a French word, meaning "lover of," not "expert."

The correct answer is: C. Ordering a salad instead of a burger at lunch
From the options listed above, ordering a salad instead of a burger at lunch, is the best example of practicing delayed gratification rather than acting on an impulse. When you crave a burger (an unhealthier food choice), but order a salad instead (a less palatable, yet much healthier food choice), you are delaying gratification you would obtain from a burger, and showing restraint by not acting on your impulse to eat a burger. Restraint and impulse control indicate maturity, emotional stability and overall better life outcomes, compared to acting impulsively and opting for immediate gratification.
‘Control’ should go in the blank spot.
