问题 The National Trust is ______.
Lord Lothian said most of the ancient houses were ______.

选项 A、to be protected by the government
B、decaying through lack of money for their repair
C、kept in good condition for the time being
D、doomed to decay without good preservation

答案D

解析 由题干Lord Lothian said most of the ancient houses were定位到原文第二段第一句...as a result of taxation and estate duty,most of these ancient houses were under sentence of death.推断题。该句提到,Lord Lothian曾经说过“由于税收和房地产遗产税,大多数占旧房屋都被判了死刑”。这里的含义是由于古屋的继承人不愿或无力承担各类税收,古屋无人保养维护,最终会衰败,故选D)。[避错]或许当时在Lord Lothian说这番话时房屋状况尚好,但他的表达侧重的是如果无人照看老房屋,其结果必定要破败,所以B)、C)被否定;原文没有提到由政府对这些古屋城堡予以保护,故A)错误。
