The decision puts the 159-year-old newspaper 【C6】______ the charging side of an increasingly wide chasm in the media industry.

选项
A、resisted
B、certified
C、acknowledged
D、appealed
答案
C
解析
考查动词辨析。该句大意为“《纽约时报》的发行商阿瑟-苏兹贝格______这一举措是一场赌博”,the move指的是上文提到的向网上读者收费的行为,acknowledge有“承认”的意思,符合文意,故C.acknowledged为正确答案。resisted意为“抵抗,反对”;certified意为“证明”;appealed意为“吸引,上诉”,均不符合文意,故排除。
