问题     "Embarrassment" , "occasionally" and "necessary" have been named among the words Brits have most d【C11】______in spelling. Researchers, who carried out a s【C12】______among 2, 000 adults, found more than half frequently have issues spelling commonly-used words. Others w【C13】______we often struggle with are " accommodate" , "questionnaire" and "rhythm". "Conscience" causes many a Brit a headache, and the words "occurrence" , "restaurant" and "guarantee" are also t【C14】______to master. Also on the top 50 everyday words Brits s【C15】______with were the words "definite", "separate" and "weird". While "appearance", "queue" and "receive" cause m【C16】______a person to scratch their head.
    The results of the study emphasized the average person’s reliance on spelling assistance—40 percent confessed they completely r【C17】______on autocorrect technology to monitor their spelling in day-to-day communication.
    Over a fifth would p【C18】______if they were forced to abandon the use of autocorrect or spell-checking technology and rely on their own knowledge.
    But s【C19】______mistakes still prove common and costly—just under a quarter of people have been embarrassed by a spelling mistake they made at work. While spelling ability is often noticed by others—48 percent of people admit they can’t help b【C20】______judge people if their spelling is bad.

选项

答案tricky

解析 此处的意思是:“conscience”让很多英国人头痛,“occurrence,restaurant,guarantee”掌握起来也同样令人头痛。由此可知,空白处应填入表示“不易的,难的”意思的词。tricky意为“棘手的”,符合句意。
