Publishers will lose a showcase for their books, 【C3】______could mean more laid-off editors. 【C4】______the problem is not the【C5】______: writers will still scribble for scraps. 【C6】______demand: American book publishers reported【C7】______across all platforms last year. It is just that no one is making money.
The business needs fresh ideas. 【C8】______Unbound, a British effort to "crowd-fund" books.

Having launched in May, the firm announced its first【C12】______on July 18th. Terry Jones, of Monty Python fame, has【C13】______the funds to finish a book of quirky stories.

【C8】
选项
A、Survive
B、Maintain
C、Exist
D、Enter
答案
D
解析
前文的fresh idea及后文提到该机构“在五月成立”都证明Unbound是新成立的机构,之前不存在,因此不能说其Survive“幸存”(A项)、Maintain“维持着”(B项)或Exist“存在着”(C项),应选D项Enter,表示该机构是新加进来的。
