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. Known variously through its history as the President’s Palace, the President’s House, and the Executive Mansion, the building has always been most popularly known as the White House. This title became【S3】______in 1901, when Theodore Roosevelt had the name【S4】______on his stationery. It has been the home of every president in American history with the【S5】______of George Washington, who approved the act that led to its construction. Although the White House has been subject to numerous【S6】______and additions, it has【S7】______its classically simple character.
The White House was【S8】______by the Irish American architect who won the $500 public architectural contest. The cornerstone was laid on October 13, 1792, and the building was essentially【S9】______in 1800, when John Adams and his family began to reside there in November.
During the War of 1812, British troops set fire to the structure on August 4, 1814, destroying the interior. Hobart supervised its reconstruction, which was completed in 1817, and also added the south doorway. The White House was substantially renovated during the administration of Harry S. Truman, when new foundations and a steel framework were built to strengthen the【S10】______sandstone walls.
A) exception B) planned C) result D) designed
E) renovations F) national G) residence H) printed
I) maintained J) prominent K) official L) original
M) completed N) situated O) office
【S8】
选项
答案
D
解析
前有was,后有by,应为被动语态,所以此处为动词。后半句说,爱尔兰裔美国人在建筑大赛上获奖,在剩下的3个动词中,designed最符合题意。
