问题     Communication between villages and the nearest town was poor. Roads were bad; there was some attempt to keep them in order, but as each parish was responsible for its own section of road, the state of repair depends on the zeal of the parish officers. There was, however, little wheeled traffic except for farm coaches used by men of wealth. Most traffic was by means of pack horses. Travelers rode on horseback or walked. Since communication was so difficult, the local markets, held weekly at the nearest town, or the fairs, held annually at the greater cities, became important places for the exchange of goods of all kinds.  
Poor roads were probably so because of ______.
选项 A、the costliness of reforms
B、politics on a parish level
C、the competition between parishes
D、the indolence of local authorities
答案D
解析 本题属细节题。文章第二句的末尾部分已经提到：公路修理的状态取决于当地行政长官的热心程度。
