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】______.

B
解析
空格前的is提示空格处应填入形容词或分词。由下文的“作者就可把书写完”推断书是没有写完的,词库中的part-written“写了部分的”符合要求。词库中的fully-written“完全写好了的”与下文的canafford to finish it相悖,可排除。
