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.

In these digitally isolating times, the personal touch may【C10】________.
【C10】
选项
答案
D
解析
此空填入动词,与may一起构成句子的谓语。句中的personal touch指代上文让读者参与出书的方法。由Unbound的例子可看出,这种方法是成功的,故选work“奏效”。
