问题 The National Trust is ______. [br] 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。
