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.

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.

【C2】
选项
A、abusing
B、deducting
C、developing
D、abandoning
答案
D
解析
考查动词辨析。根据选项中的动词现在分词形式推断,该句是动词现在分词作状语,此处意为“…抛弃了网上用户不用付费看新闻的习惯做法”,逻辑主语是前文提到的《纽约时报》计划设置网站的收费门槛,故D.abandoning“放弃,抛弃”为正确答案。abuse“滥用,虐待”;deduct“扣除,减去,演绎”;develop“发展,培养”,均不符合题意。
