White House, official【S1】______of the president of the U.S., built in its original form between 1792 and 1800, and【S2】______in Washington, D.C.

During the War of 1812, British troops set fire to the structure on August 4, 1814, destroying the interior.

选项
答案

前有the,后有名词,所以应填形容词,前半句说杜鲁门总统时期白宫被修葺,那么根据句意,下半句应为新的地基和钢构架加强了原来的砂岩墙壁,所以选original。
