    The difference between "writer" and "reporter" or "journalist" isn’t that the journalist reports-she【C1】______ sources, calls people, takes them out to lunch, and【C2】______ acts as an intermediary between her audience and the world of experts. The journalist also writes, of course, but anybody can write. But few can get their calls【C3】______ by key congressmen, top academics, important CEOs. That is the powerful advantage that the journalist has over her audience: She’s got sources and they don’t.
    If the transaction between the journalist and the audience is that the journalist has the time, talent, and【C4】______ to clearly communicate the ideas of newsmakers and experts, what then is the transaction between the journalist and those newsmakers and experts? After all, the journalist, and her institution, are profiting, hopefully handsomely, off their contribution to the enterprise. It’s not going too far to say that the whole business would【C5】______without their participation. Journalists without sources are, well, mere writers.
    Moreover, those sources are giving up something of value. They’re giving up【C6】______, for one thing. Some fine folks have spent countless hours【C7】______ me through the details of the federal budget. They’re giving up information that, in other【C8】______, people pay them for—consider a CEO who gives paid lectures or a life-long academic at a private college. They are exposing themselves to considerable professional risk, both by telling the journalist things they’re not supposed to share and simply by making themselves vulnerable to being【C9】______ in public.
    So how does the journalist compensate these sources? Well, the natural answer in a market economy would be that the sources to get paid. But, in a brilliant maneuver, journalism as a profession has deemed it【C10】______ to pay sources for information. [br] 【C8】

选项

答案 C

解析 空格处需填入名词作in的宾语。本句是讲新闻提供者在提供新闻时让渡和付出的另一种东西——信息。破折号后给了两个例子“做收费讲座的CEO”和“私立学院的终身教授”,这两类人的共同点是他们以收费形式来提供信息,换言之,这些要收费的情况区别于给记者提供新闻信息的情况,所以前面才会说他们让渡了“信息”这个有价值之物。词库中的contexts代入后表示“在其他情况下”,符合语义。
