解析：1.根据上一句中的workplace及下文多处提到的workers可知，全文是关于全职工作者的网络使用问题，故此空选workers。

ss常和have搭配，表示“利用……的机会或权利”，故选 B项。

3.此处用it代替上文的Internet access。

4.此处为*入语，根据语境可知表示“根据……”，故选C项。 because of意为“因为”；owing to意为“由于”；as a result意为“因此”。

5.设空前是现在的全职工作者利用网络做相关的研究和发送电子邮件，设空后是对比十年前的情况有所不同，故前后为转折关系，应选 but。

6.由设空后的while now it has mushroomed可知，十年前的工作场所中还没有网络可用，故nowhere正确。

7.根据本段第一句For many Americans. Internet access is not just a workplace distraction but a key part of their jobs.可知，现如今网络已经发展成了一种重要的力量。force意为“有影响力的事物”，符合语境。energy意为“能量；精力”；power意为“动力；权力”；strength意为 “力量;力气;体力”。故选D项。

8.此处是陈述*测验的结果，故选B项。

9.由设空前的with access to Web可知,此处是指这些人每天至少上网一次，故B项正确。

10.根据文章第一句中的but a key part of their jobs可知，网络是工作者们工作中重要的一部分。由此可推断出网络提高了工作者们的工作能力，故A项符合语境。

11.根据设空后的语境可知，此处指很多工作者一上网就迷恋于一些东西，故stick to (坚持；继续使用）正确。give up意为“放弃”； keep up意为“保持;不减弱”；lead to意为“导致”。

12.宾语从句的主语为 they，指代 More than half of those surveyed。当主语是人时，“花费”时间应用spend。

13.根据空后的 playing games, checking sports scores 可知，本句是指上网是为了*，故fun(乐趣;*）正确。

14.设空处与 playing games, checking sports scores 并列，再根据空后的products(产品) 可知，设空处应选D项。

15.根据第一段第二句 About 37% of all full-time _______ in America…可知，这些工作者是全职的，故full-time(全职的)正确。

16.根据第19空后的population可知，此处是对使用网络的人进行数据分析，故population(人口) 正确。

17.根据第18空后的on the Web可知，此处是指使用网络的工作者，故 access 正确。

18.根据空后的than可知，此处应用比较级，故more(更多的)正确。

19.与使用网络的人作对比的应该是一般人，故general(普通的;一般的)正确。old意为“老的”;specific意为“具体的”;usual意为“通常的”。
