Women with low literacy suffer disproportionately more than men, encountering more【C6】________ in finding a well-paying job and being twice as likely to end up in the group of lowest wage earners, a study released on Wednesday said.
Analysis by the Institute for Women’s Policy Research (IWPR) found women at all levels of【C7】________tend to earn less than men, but it’s at the lowest literacy levels that the wage gap between genders is most【C8】________.
Women with low literacy are twice as likely as men at the same skill level to be among the lowest earners, bringing in $300 a week or less, the report said.
"Because women start off so low in terms of wages, having higher literacy and more skills really【C9】________a big difference, " said Kevin Miller, a【C10】________research associate at IWPR and co-author of the study.
Women need to go【C11】________in their training and education level to earn the same as men, Miller said.
The【C12】________was based on 2003 National Assessment of Adult Literacy surveys, the most recent data【C13】________, and focused on reading skills, not writing and numeric literacy. That data was【C14】________from a nationally representative sample of 19, 714 people aged 16 and older, living in households or prisons.
Data showed about one-third of American adults have low literacy levels, and more than 36 percent of men and 33 percent of women fall into that【C15】________, the institute said.

选项
答案
C
解析
通过分析此处的句子结构可知,空格前的having higher literacy and more skills为该句主语,再结合副词really和空格后的a big difference,可知空格处应填入动词作谓语,该动词应为第三人称单数形式。符合语法要求的只有C选项makes,而且make a difference是一个固定搭配,意为“有影响,起作用”符合语义需要,故C为正确答案。
