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. Terry Jones, of Monty Python fame, has【C6】________ the funds to finish a book of quirky stories. Handsome edited volumes and e-books will follow.

Readers【C9】________ enjoy feeling like part of the creative process. Most readers won’t pay £8.99 for an acclaimed book, yet some will spend £50 on a signed unwritten one. In these digitally isolating times, the personal touch may【C10】________. [br] 【C7】
选项
答案
N
解析
空格填入名词,作介词of的宾语。由于书籍未出版前就能得到读者的资助,这样就降低了出版商的投资幅度,故选investment“投资”。词库中的finance“财政”不能跟lower搭配,可排除。
