America’s Internet is faster than ever before, but people still complain about their Internet being too slow.
New York’s Attorney General’s office【C6】________an investigation in the fall into whether or not Verizon, Cablevision and Time Warner are delivering broadband that’s as fast as the providers【C7】________ it is. Earlier this month, the office asked for the public’s help to measure their speed results, saying consumers【C8】________to get the speeds they were promised. "Too many of us may be paying for one thing, and getting another," the Attorney General said.
If the investigation uncovers anything, it wouldn’t be the first time a telecom provider got into【C9】________over the broadband speeds it promised and delivered customers. Back in June, the Federal Communications Commission fined AT&T $100 million over【C10】________that the carrier secretly reduced wireless speeds after customers consumed a certain amount of【C11】________.
Even when they stay on the right side of the law, Internet providers arouse customers’ anger over bandwidth speed and cost. Just this week, an investigation found that media and telecom giant Comcast is the most【C12】________provider. Over 10 months, Comcast received nearly 12,000 customer complaints, many【C13】________to its monthly data cap and overage charges.
Some Americans are getting so【C14】________with Internet providers they’re just giving up. A recent study found that the number of Americans with high-speed Internet at home today【C15】________fell during the last two years, and 15% of people now consider themselves to be "cord-cutters".
[A] accusations [B] actually [C] claim
[D] communicating [E] complain [F] data
[G] deserved [H] frustrated [I] hated
[J] launched [K] relating [L] times
[M] trouble [N] usually [O] worried
【C7】
选项
答案
C
解析
空格位于从句it is之前,应填入动词。本句意为:威瑞森公司、有线电视公司和时代华纳公司提供的宽带网速是否与他们________的一样快。由本段最后一句可知,许多消费者花的钱和买到的东西并不一致,所以这些网络服务商真实提供的网速与他们所说的可能不一致,故选C。
