While people are used to seeing deals at Amazon, the present【C2】______ is unusually deep. The booksellers’ newsletter Shelf Awareness【C3】______ a rare Saturday issue about them, writing that the discounts were at "levels we’ve never seen in the history of Amazon." And according to Jack Mckeown, president of Books & Books Westhampton Beach in New York, it is an open【C4】______ of war against the industry.
Amazon has just announced that it will add 7,000 jobs—2,000 of those seasonal—at its regional shipping and customer service centers. The company says its workers make 30% more than traditional retail【C5】______ .

Can President Obama be a friend to independent booksellers and the online retailer at the same time?

A) trimming B) retail C) evidently D) aggressive
E) staff F) promote G) misguided H) motivation
I) quest J) delivered K) declaration L) reckon
M) photographed N) enthusiastic O) faithfully [br] 【C9】
选项
答案
M
解析
has been和at independent bookstores表明空格应该是动词的过去分词。根据下一句的The next time he shows up…(下一次他再去书店买书的时候)可推断本句谓语部分应该描述奥巴马“曾经去过”那些书店。词库中photographed符合上下文语境。
