Three hundred years ago news travelled by word of mouth or letter. They【C1】______in coffee houses and inns in the form of leaflets (传单). Everything changed in 1833 when the first mass-audience newspaper, the New York Sun,【C2】______the use of advertising to【C3】______down the cost of news, thus giving advertisers【C4】______to a wider audience.

Most【C10】______, ordinary people are increasingly【C11】______in compiling, sharing, filtering, discussing and【C12】______news. Twitter lets people anywhere report what they are seeing. And it is not just readers who are【C13】______the media elite (精英). Technology firms including Google, Facebook and Twitter have become important channels of news. Many countries now make raw data【C14】______through " open government" initiatives. The Internet lets people read newspapers or watch television channels from around the world.

A Texan who once had to【C17】______on the Houston Chronicle to【C18】______the world can now collect information from infinite different sources. What is to be done? At a societal (社会的) level, not much.

选项
A、reply
B、rely
C、supply
D、multiply
答案
B
解析
动词辨义题。此处意为“得克萨斯人过去不得不依靠《休斯顿纪事报》……”,rely“依靠,信赖”符合题意。reply“回答,答复”;supply“供给,提供”;multiply“乘,使增加”,均不符合文意,故排除。
