These are dark days for the book business. Borders, a once-huge bookseller,【C1】______ on July 18th that it will close down its remaining stores, leaving nearly 10,700 staff jobless. Publishers will lose a showcase for their books, which could mean more laid-off editors. Yet the problem is not the 【C2】______: writers will still scribble for scraps. Nor demand: American book publishers reported 【C3】______ across all platforms last year. It is just that no one is making money.
The business needs fresh ideas. Enter Unbound, a British effort to "crowd-fund" books. Visitors to its website can pledge money for a book that is only【C4】______. If enough money is raised, the author can afford to finish it—and the pledgers will get a copy. Having launched in May, the firm announced its first【C5】______ on July 18th. Terry Jones, of Monty Python fame, has【C6】______ the funds to finish a book of quirky stories. Handsome edited volumes and e-books will follow.

In these digitally isolating times, the personal touch may【C10】______.
【C9】
选项
答案
A
解析
空格应填入副词,修饰enjoy。由Unbound的成功及下文读者愿意花钱在未完成的书籍上可见,读者是愿意参与到写作过程中的,故选apparently“明显地”。simply“简单地”暗含贬低的意味,与上文Unbound的成功不符,可排除。
