The BBC has long dominated Britain’s media, and in recent years it has got even bigger. Many local newspapers are dying. The technological change that has caused other media outlets to【C1】______has given the BBC new scope for expansion. It has a huge online presence and an increase of digital television channels and radio stations. With a(n)【C2】______of around 23,000, it is the largest broadcaster in the world.
The BBC makes good use of some of this money. Its documentaries, serious radio output (such as "Today" ) and website are excellent. Although polls show trust in it is【C3】______, the BBC remains respected around the world and is a handy tool for projecting British interests.
The BBC’s size, as Mr. Entwistle【C4】______out, is a problem not just for the competition but for the organization itself. Its full management means that those at the top do not know what’s going on at the【C5】______, and affects creativity. Few of its dramas or comedies are world-beaters. Even in news, recent big stories, such as phone-hacking and MPs’ expenses, have been exposed by other【C6】______ newspapers, not the powerful state-backed organization. Editors should edit— and be responsible for it—not report to compliance officers.
BBC needs a set of fixes quickly. One useful change would be to【C7】______the job of director-general into those of chief executive and editor-in-chief. The first would be a manager, charged with making the organization more efficient; the second would be a journalist,【C8】______with producing accurate, hard-hitting stories and refocusing the output on quality.
Britons are 【C9】______resistant to radical ideas. As the 20th century showed, that is, by and large, a good thing. The danger, though, is that 【C10】______organizations wither and die. The media business is one of Britain’s strengths. If it is to stay that way, the BBC needs to change.
A. staff B. naturally C. residents D. unreformed
E. shrink F. foundation G. charged H. pointed
I. modest J. bottom K. decrease L. declining
M. split N. impoverished O. definitely [br] 【C6】
选项
答案
N
解析
impoverished,词义辨析题。根据词性,此处应当填入形容词。根据后句中的not可判断此句为“是……,而不是……”的结构,那自然语义也是相对的。根据后句中的形容词powerful“强大的”可推测,前句中的报纸公司是不够powerful,那么最佳选项应是impoverished“无力的,贫困的”。该句句意为“最近的一些大事如电话窃听事件”和“报销门”也是由已经濒临破产的报纸揭露的,而不是BBC这家由国家资助的强大组织。
