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."

A)trimming B)retail C)evidently D)aggressive
E)staff F)promote G)misguided H)motivation

选项
答案
O
