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 pay wall around its digital offering, 【C2】______ the accepted practice that internet users will not pay for news.
Struggling 【C3】______ an evaporation of advertising and a downward drift in street corner sales, The New York Times 【C4】______ to introduce a "metered" model at the beginning of 2011. Readers will be required to pay when they have 【C5】______ a set number of its online articles per month.
The decision puts the 159-year-old newspaper 【C6】______ the charging side of an increasingly wide chasm in the media industry. But others, including The Guardian, have said they will not【C7】______internet readers, and certain papers, 【C8】______ London’s Evening Standard, have gone further in abandoning readership revenue by making their print editions【C9】______.
The New York Times’ publisher, Arthur Sulzberger,【C10】______that the move is a gamble: "This is a【C11】______, to a certain degree, in where we think the web is going."
Boasting a print【C12】______of 995,000 on weekdays and 1.4 million on Sundays, The New York Times is the third bestselling American newspaper,【C13】______The Wall Street Journal and USA Today.【C14】______most U.S. papers focus on a single city, The New York Times is among the few that can【C15】______national scope—as well as【C16】______bureaus in the New York area, it has 11 offices around the U.S. and 1626 bureaus elsewhere in the world.
But【C17】______many in the publishing industry, the paper is in the grip of a【C18】______financial crisis. Its parent company, the New York Times Company, has 15 papers, but【C19】______a loss of $70 million in the nine months to September and recently accepted a $250 million【C20】______from a Mexican billionaire, Carlos Slim, to strengthen its balance sheet.
【C18】
选项
A、heavy
B、crude
C、rough
D、serious
答案
D
解析
考查形容词辨析。这句话中的in the grip of意为“受…控制”,空格处需要填入一个形容词修饰金融危机,serious意为“严重的”,常用于修饰crisis(危机),故选D.serious。heavy意为“沉重的”;crude意为“粗糙的,天然的”;rough意为“大约,粗糙的”,均不能用来修饰crisis,故排除。
