The Old Gate
In the Middle Ages the vast majority of European cities had walls around them. This was partly for defensive【C1】______but another factor was the need to keep out anyone regarded as undesirable, like people with contagious【C2】______. The Old City of London gates were all【C3】______by the end of the 18th century. The last of London’s gates was removed a century ago, but by a【C4】______of luck, it was never destroyed.
This gate is, in【C5】______fact, not called a gate at all; its name is Temple Bar, and it marked the【C6】______between the Old City of London and Westminster. In 1878 the Council of London took the Bar down, numbered the stones and put the gate in【C7】______because its design was 【C8】______it was expensive to【C9】______and it was blocking the traffic.
The Temple Bar Trust was【C10】______in the 1970’s with the intention of returning the gate home. The aim of the trust is the【C11】______of the nation’s architectural heritage.
Transporting the gate will mean physically pulling it【C12】______, stone by stone, removing and rebuilding it near St Paul’s Cathedral. Most of the facade of the gate will probably be【C13】______, though there is a good【C14】______that the basic structure will be sound.

选项
A、maintain
B、afford
C、repair
D、fix
答案
A
解析
本题考查动词辨析。空前一句说,这个酒吧已经过时了;空后一句说它阻挡了交通;联系四个选项A项maintain维持,保留,B项afford买得起,负担得起,C项repair修理,修补,D项fix修理。B项与句意不相干,所以首先排除;又由于这个酒吧已经过时了,没有必要去修理了,所以排除C、D两项;最后剩下A项,句意为要保留这个酒吧是要花费很大的代价的。故本题选择A项。
