问题     " Almost universally, women have failed to reach leading
positions in major corporations and private sector organizations,
respective of their abilities," said author Linda Wirth. " The higher【S1】______
the position, the glaring the gender gap. " The ILO said men【S2】______

Women are more "invisible" in the corporate world but they are less【S4】______
keen on informal gatherings. They are also fighting a losing battle for【S5】______
against sexual harassment.
    A British study found that women in one company subjecting to【S6】______
continuing sexual harassment and bullying failed to achieve
promotion whatever strategy they used. " Protesting and complaining
earned them a label of ’ feminist’ and ’ whining’ , while trying to【S7】______
be one of the men invited further harassment," the ILO report said.
    A survey of 300 companies in Britain last year found that just 3

the top executive and boardroom positions. The ILO also reported
that the comparative high proportion of women executives in large【S10】______

选项
答案 respective—irrespective
解析 语义错误。结合下文可以看出，此句要表达的意思是“不管她们的能力如何，在大多数公司或私营组织中，女性都很难取得领导地位，这种情况几乎是普遍的。”respective意为“各自的，分别的”，而irrespective才表示“不管的，不顾的”，且通常与of连用。
