These are dark days for the book business. Borders, a once-huge bookseller,【C1】________ on July 18th that it will close down its remaining stores, leaving nearly 10,700 staff jobless. Publishers will lose a showcase for their books, which could mean more laid-off editors. Yet the problem is not the【C2】________ : writers will still scribble for scraps. Nor demand: American book publishers reported【C3】________ across all platforms last year. It is just that no one is making money.
The business needs fresh ideas. Enter Unbound, a British effort to "crowd-fund" books. Visitors to its website can pledge money for a book that is only【C4】________. If enough money is raised, the author can afford to finish it—and the pledgers will get a copy. Having launched in May, the firm announced its first【C5】________ on July 18th.

In these digitally isolating times, the personal touch may【C10】________. [br] 【C1】

答案
L
解析
此处填入动词,作句子谓语,其宾语为从句意为“它会关闭其现存的书店”,这是公司决策的宣布和公示,故应选词库中的announced“宣布”。allege“宣称,断言”之意,指在无真凭实据情况下宣称,与文中语境不符。
