For months Twitter, the micro-blogging service, has received the kind of free attention of which most companies can only dream. Politicians, corporate bosses, activists and citizens【C1】______the platform to catch every tweet of America’s new president, who has become the service’s【C2】______"The whole world is watching Twitter,"【C3】______Jack Dorsey, the company’s chief executive,【C4】______he presented its results on February 9th. He has little else to brag about.
But Donald Trump has not provided the kind of boost the【C5】______firm really needs. It reported【C6】______revenue growth and a loss of $ 167m. User growth has been sluggish, too; it added just 2m users in that period. Facebook added 72m. The day of the results, shares in Twitter dropped by 12%.【C7】______news outlets around the world already report【C8】______Mr Trump’s most sensational tweets, many do not feel compelled to join the platform to【C9】______them. Others are【C10】______by mobs of trolls and large amounts of misinformation.
And not【C11】______Mr Trump could change the cold, hard truth about Twitter: that it can never be Facebook. True, it has become one of the most important【C12】______for public and political【C13】______among its 319m monthly users. It played an important role in the Arab spring and【C14】______such as Black Lives Matter. But the platform’s freewheeling nature makes it hard to spin gold from.【C15】______, really trying to do so—by packing Twitter feeds【C16】______advertising, say—would drive away users. Twitter’s latest results are likely to encourage those who think it should never have become a【C17】______listed company, and want it to consider alternate models of ownership, such as a co-operative. They【C18】______Twitter as a kind of public utility—a "people’s platform" —the management of which should concern public【C19】______rather more than commercial ones. If the company were cooperatively owned by users, it would be【C20】______from short-term pressure to please its investors and meet earnings targets.

选项
A、In a word
B、As a result
C、In fact
D、At least
答案
C
解析
逻辑关系题。[A]In a word总之;[B]As a result结果;[C]In fact事实上;[D]At least至少。该句是为了进一步说明上一句,原文说:But the platform’s freewheeling nature makes it hard to spin gold from. 15 ,really trying to do so一by packing Twitter feeds16 advertising,say—would drive away users.“但是这个平台随心所欲的本质让人很难从中掘金。______,真试图这么做的话,例如将推特订阅跟广告捆绑,反而会把用户赶走。”选项[A]表示“总之”,是总结性逻辑词,显然此处并没有总结全文,故可以排除该项;选项[B]表示“结果”,属于因果逻辑,文中此处也没有强调因果;剩余[C][D]两项代入原文,符合语境的为in fact,故本题选择[C]。
