答案與解析：
36.【解析】O。此處需要一個副詞來修飾動詞done。根據上下文意思，文中列舉的那些工作，大部分或主要是由女性完成的。所以，primarily“主要地”最符合。
37.【解析】K。此處需要一個形容詞作定語修飾work。根據上下文意思，____work，應與family shopping，preparing meals並列，同屬in-home jobs。結合選項，只有voluntary帶入後意為“義務工作”符合文意。
38.【解析】G。根據上下文意思，所填入的名詞應該是對前一個分句的'概括，故選situation“局面，情況”。
39.【解析】J。根據文意，儘管男女之間仍然存在巨大的工資_______。此處顯然填可數名詞單數，結合選項只有gao“差距”符合文意。
40.【解析】 C。根據文意，職業女性——的收入給她們帶來了獨立和購買功。此處顯然填動詞，選項的動詞中顯然只有generate“產生，生產”符合文意。
41.【解析】 N。此處需要一個動詞原形，作句子的謂語。根據上下文意思，不難看出purchase符合。
42.【解析】 M。此處應填動詞作為謂語，且根據前文的時間Not long ago可知要填動詞的過去式。根據句中ignoring和suggesting部分的意思，只有insulted符合題意。
43.【解析】I。此處需要一個形容詞作定語修飾customers。根據上下文意思，前句與本句存在一種對比關係，前句說侮辱女性沒法買車，本句顯然表達女性是potential“潛在的”顧客。
44.【解析】 H。此處需要一個副詞作不定式的狀語修飾pay attention。代入選項中剩餘的副詞really和technically，不難看出really符合文意。
45.【解析】 D。根據上下文，前句說日本是個男性主導的國家，本句中說日本社會卻促使了美國公司更加關注女性購買者，顯然這兩者之間是一個extreme“強烈的”對比。
