Dear Ms. Sullivan,
The maintenance expense figures for the Peoria, Deca, Springfield and Chicago plants are as follows:

The expenses at the Deca plant are higher than those at the Peoria, Springfield and Chicago plants because the Deca plant buildings, built in 1963, were almost collapsing in the year recorded.
The Peoria, Springfield and Chicago plants were built in the 1984, 1991 and 1995 respectively.
                                                                              Sincerely,
                                                                                    
                                                            Paul Horvath, General Manager

Subject: Deca plant
The report helped me understand the situation at the plant in Deca.
The board of directors will have a meeting next week to discuss renovation plans for the Deca plant. The Deca plant buildings will undergo extensive and costly renovations. Obviously, there is a great deal of work to be done. I’m planning to spend a few days in Deca at the end of this month, and would like to meet you there.
I would like to know what your assessment of the situation is. My secretary will contact you later this week, and let you know the dates when I’ 11 be there. My secretary will make the travel arrangements for you. Various proposals will be put forward for renovation at next week’ s meeting.
If you have any proposals, please send them to me as soon as possible, and I’ 11 ensure that they are reviewed.
What explains the facts that the Deca plant consistently has the highest costs?
选项 A、The size of the buildings
B、The ramshackle buildings
C、The location of the plant
D、The layout of the plant’s buildings
答案B
解析 文中提到，迪卡工厂的厂房都快倒塌了(because the Deca plant buildings…were almost collapsing)，因此整修花费较高，所以(B)The ramshackle buildings(几近倒坍的建筑物)是正确答案。ramshackle的意思是“(房子或建筑物)摇摇欲坠的，要倒似的”。
