【NPR邊聽邊練】致力于提供新鮮有趣、饒有意味的時訊資料，致力于通過精聽的方式促進聽力提高，致力于不斷開闊眼界和深入了解美國觀點。

精聽建議：
先完整地把一條新聞聽一到三遍，爭取掌握大意。然后，一句一句精聽，力爭每句話都聽明白。遇到實在不懂的地方，再聽寫。

下面的文本材料中空缺部分里面要填的詞都很簡單，不過是一些值得注意的連讀或者典型的美式發音哦，有些語速比較快。試試看，你能不能全部寫對？

（參考文本，歡迎指出錯誤^^）

"For years, the objective of the industry was expansion and to deliver the highest circulation number possible. Some newspapers sold ___(3)___ to entitle new subscribers. But when you factor in the high cost of discounting, that's a lesser unit of circulation. So some of these losses are filling in the hurt, ___(4)___."
But still a lot of newspapers are infected, ___(5)___ and they certainly don't want to. And where are they going? The Internet, I gather, is doing rather well.
