    _______ you like pizza?

    Explanation
    The given correct answer is "Do". The question is asking about someone's preference for pizza. In English, when we want to ask about someone's likes or preferences, we use the auxiliary verb "do" at the beginning of the sentence. Therefore, the correct way to ask this question is "Do you like pizza?"
