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".

[D] communicating [E] complain [F] data
[G] deserved [H] frustrated [I] hated

【C15】
选项
答案
B
解析
分析空格所在句的句子成分可知,本句有完整的主谓结构,而且空格处又位于动词fell之前,因此应填入副词。本句意为:一项最近的研究表明,在过去两年里,家中有高速网络的美国人的数量________下降了。结合前一句可知,一些美国人放弃使用网络,因此使用人数实际上是下降的,故选B。
