As a woman working in the first half of the 20th century, Franklin's contributions to some of the greatest scientific discoveries of our time - including the structure of DNA - were sadly（72）________ in her lifetime.
More than 60 years after Franklin's death, we are（73）________ living in a different world, where women play an important part in every echelon（阶层） of our society——not least in science, innovation, higher education and research.

H)misread
I)nomination
J)overlooked
K)promoting
L)senior
M)submission
N)suggesting
O)thankfully
accessible 可接近的，可达到的，容易理解的。首先知道，本段第一句就说到科学对于生活的重要性。然后看一下空格前后的内容，判断此题在句子中充当的成分，should be 后边要么是分词，要么是形容词。她认为追求科学是大家都应该能做到的。accessible意思完全符合。
overlooked 被忽视的。看到空前单词sadly，说明此处应该是一个负面的词，句子主干是说，她的贡献很遗憾被________，被动语态，overlooked完全吻合。
thankfully 感激地，高兴地。看空格所在句子是一个完整的句子，所以应该是填写副词，而后where说明了我们生活的世界女性重要，所以，空格词是正向的。thankfully符合句意。
promoting 促进。此空内容与and前的“advancing前进的”并列，所以是一个同性的词，并且是正向的，意思一致的，只有promoting合适。
considerable 相当大的，重要的。根据上一题前的内容，说英国大学在推动性别平等方面是世界性领导者，而此处说，在过去的十几年里，我们看到了在英格拉看到了________的增加在女性的进步方面。肯定是巨大的，大幅度的，才符合。所以选considerable。
accounted 认为；account for 占……比例；对……负责。这个选项比较好选，妇女________了一半以上的人数，肯定是占了多少人数。与for搭配，比较选项只有account for合适，然后看时态，过去时，符合语法规则。
ladder 梯子，阶梯。分析空格的内容，发现句子缺少主语名词，而主语主修饰的词是“成功”，后边女性要攀爬，女性攀爬成功的________越来越难，又是名词，只能选ladder。
senior 高级的，年迈的，有经验的。分析空格，应该是形容词。后边说，虽然学校里女性多，但是只有四分之一的女性教授，表明女性攀爬成功的阶梯越来越难。对比选项，只有L最合适。因此，选senior。
suggesting 表明，暗示。看下段首句，降到工资不平等问题。后边说确保女性工资增长还有一段路要走，前后衔接，对比剩下的选项，suggesting表明，意味着，符合句意。
appropriately 适当的，合适的。空前说，女性需要提升更高级别的地位，并且被________的付工资。争取平等，争取合理保障，工资合理。appropriately 最符合句意。
