Struggling with an evaporation of advertising and a downward drift in street corner sales, The New York Times 【C3】______ to introduce a "metered" model at the beginning of 2011. Readers will be required to pay when they have 【C4】______ a set number of its online articles per month.
The decision puts the 159-year-old newspaper【C5】______the charging side of an increasingly wide chasm (鸿沟) in the media industry. But others, including the Guardian, have said they will not charge internet readers, and certain papers, such as London’ s Evening Standard, have gone further in abandoning readership revenue by making their print editions free.
The New York Times’ publisher, Arthur Sulzberger, 【C6】______ that the move is a gamble: "This is a bet, to a certain degree, in where we think the web is going."
Boasting a print 【C7】______ of 995,000 on weekdays and 1.4 million on Sundays, The New York Times is the third best-selling American newspaper, behind the Wall Street Journal and USA Today.

A) suffered B) targeted C) circulation D) set out
E) acknowledged F) abandoning G) multiplied H) intend to
I) maintains J) claim K) evaluation L) set in
M) on N) exceeded O) abusing [br] 【C3】
选项
答案
H
解析
此处应该选一个动词,intend to的意思是“企图,打算做”,根据上下文可知《纽约时报》打算推出“计量”模式,即当读者每月阅读的在线文章超过一定数量时要付一定费用,这里表示“打算做,企图”的意思只有H项,因此,正确答案是H。
