    aversion. averse is an adjectve, not a noun. aversion is a noun and thus fits better.

    Aversion.

    Averse is an adjective. For example:

    I am averse to smoking.

    Aversion is a noun, a feeling. For example:

    I have a strong aversion to snakes and sharks.

    The blank isn't used to describe a word, it is an entity, a noun. So therefore, the answer is aversion. = )

    Aversion would fit the first blank better, and then place returning for the second blank.

    aversion.

    my aunt has an aversion to rural life

    my aunt is averse to rural life (would be how "averse" is used)
