America’s most popular newspaper website today announced that the era of free online journalism is drawing to a close. The New York Times has become the biggest publisher yet to 【C1】______ plans for a paywall around its digital offering, 【C2】______ the accepted practice that internet users will not pay for news.
Struggling with an evaporation of advertising and a downward drift in street corner sales, The New York Times 【C3】______ to introduce a "metered" model at the beginning of 2011. Readers will be required to pay when they have 【C4】______ a set number of its online articles per month.
The decision puts the 159-year-old newspaper【C5】______the charging side of an increasingly wide chasm (鸿沟) in the media industry. But others, including the Guardian, have said they will not charge internet readers, and certain papers, such as London’ s Evening Standard, have gone further in abandoning readership revenue by making their print editions free.
The New York Times’ publisher, Arthur Sulzberger, 【C6】______ that the move is a gamble: "This is a bet, to a certain degree, in where we think the web is going."
Boasting a print 【C7】______ of 995,000 on weekdays and 1.4 million on Sundays, The New York Times is the third best-selling American newspaper, behind the Wall Street Journal and USA Today. While most US papers focus on a single city, The New York Times is among the few that can 【C8】______ national scope—as well as 16 bureaus in the New York area, it has 11 offices around the US and 【C9】_______ 26 bureaus elsewhere in the world.
But like many in the publishing industry, the paper is in the grip of a serious financial crisis. Its parent company, the New York Times Company, has 15 papers, but【C10】______a loss of $70 million in the nine months to September and recently accepted a $250 million loan from a Mexican billionaire, Carlos Slim, to strengthen its balance sheet.
A) suffered B) targeted C) circulation D) set out
E) acknowledged F) abandoning G) multiplied H) intend to
I) maintains J) claim K) evaluation L) set in
M) on N) exceeded O) abusing
【C8】
选项
答案
J
解析
此处要填一个表示发表意见的动词,claim的意思是“声称,要求”,根据上下文可知,这里讲的是《纽约时报》却是少数几个可以自称面向全国发行的报纸之一,claim一般用于此种语境表示声称某种地位。I项maintains的意思是“维持,保持”不符合要求,而且在情态动词can后面不能用第三人称单数形式,因此,正确答案是J。
