Target yesterday said it saw 【C8】______ price pressure from rival Wal-Mart who had strong sales both domestically and internationally. For the fourth quarter, Target’s profit【C9】______to $832m, or 91 cents a share, compared with $688m, or 75 cents a share, a year ago.

【C4】
选项
答案
L
解析
offset,上下文逻辑题。根据词性,此处应当填入动词。根据前文可知塔吉特公司的收益是增长的,由此可推测此句句意应当为“塔吉特的信用卡业务,塔吉特公司分店和马歇尔菲尔德商店的收益,抵消了默文百货连锁税前利润的小幅下降”。所以此处选择offset“抵消”。
