第二篇：17题，答案给的是D，我选了A，怎么能看出来是exceptionally long-lasting啊？
我是回原文最后一句定位的。the time required was not justified unless the customer was willing to pay extra for the quality--and few in rural areas were, Artisans,therefore, often found it necessary to employ as many shortcuts and economics as possible while still producing satisfactory products.
不是说很少有人愿意付多的钱为了这些高品质的东东吗？因此artisan找捷径和经济的方法。所以我选的A simple.

你的答案有误。这个题应该是B: delicate 精致的。因为匠人的技术很高，所以做出来的东东不会 simple，尽管很少有人愿意付多的钱为了这些高品质的东东。
