选项 _________(62) A:up B:over C:on D:down

答案 D

解析根据常识及上下文意思可知，城墙的功能之一是为了防御外敌，defensive的意思是“防御的”，符合文义，为正确答案。sensitive敏感的；offensive进攻的；primitive原始的。
contagious意为“传染的”，后应该跟的是表示疾病的词，由此可知正确答案为A。 injury 伤害，受伤；symptom症状；cold感冒。
根据上下文意思可知，这里说的是“伦敦古城的城门均在18世纪末被拆除”。devote 意为“献身于······”;declare意为“公开宣布”;decrease意为“减少”;demolish意为“拆毁，破坏”，符合句意。
前面讲“城门都被拆除”，后面讲“它们没有被破坏”，因此中间应该用一个表转折的词连接，故C选项正确。
in actual fact为固定搭配，意思是“事实上”，等于actually或as a matter of fact。
此句句意为“它的名字叫圣殿酒吧区，是伦敦古城与威斯敏斯特的分界线”。border的意思为“边界，国界”，后加between或with，符合文义，为正确答案。part部分；limit界限，界线； line路线，排。
从下文的“给石头编号，并将城门保存下来”可知，应该是把城门推倒了，因此应该选B。
后面说的都是推倒城门的原因，因此此处应填表原因的连接词，因此选D。
此句意为“······维护费用昂贵，并且堵塞交通”。discover意为“发现”;repair意为 “修”;fix意为“修理，安装”。“（对建筑物的）维护”应为maintain。故选D。
with the intention of意为“为了，以······为目的”，符合文义。
此句句意为“目的是保存国家的建筑遗产”。preservation意为“（古物，建筑）的保存”, 与句意相符。conversion转变，变换；reservation保留，预定；registration登记，注册。
pull up意为“向上拉”;puil over意为“（车）向路边停靠”;pull on意为“狠抽，猛吸”；只有pull down意思是“摧毁，推倒”，与句意相符。
store意为“储存”;exchange意为“交换”;replace意为“替换，更新”，符合文义；recognize 意为“识别”。
there is a good chance that的意思是“很有可能发生某事，有……的机会”，符合文义
此处意为“最艰难的工作”,the hardest job of all为常用说法。case事例，情况；voice声音；type类型。
