Bargain book shoppers must have been pleased looking at Amazon’s bestseller list this weekend: The online bookseller had dropped prices on some of its top-selling hardcovers, as much as 64% off【C1】______. 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】______.
President Obama, who is known to【C6】______shop at independent bookstores when given the chance, has angered the American Booksellers Association with a planned appearance Tuesday at an Amazon warehouse. ABA Chief Executive Oren Teicher stated that the appearance is "greatly【C7】______," as he wrote in an open letter to the president because Amazon has caused a net loss of jobs, while President Obama’s goal is to【C8】______his plan for a stronger economy.
Can President Obama be a friend to independent booksellers and the online retailer at the same time? He’s been【C9】______at independent bookstores Prairie Lights in Iowa City and Bunch of Grapes in Martha’s Vineyard. The next time he shows up to shop for books, they may have some words for him, which may be less than【C10】______.
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。
