5. In several cities, the government is going ahead with

ambitious construction projects despite the high office-

  (C) If facilities available for leasing come very close

      to meeting the government’s requirements for

      facilities the government needs, the government

      sider those facilities in compliance.

  (D) The government’s construction projects would not

      on being completed, add to the stock of facilities

      available for leasing in the cities concerned.

  (E) Before embarking on any major construction

      project, the government is required by law to

答案：即使现有的空房子通过改造来适应新设施，经济上仍然没有修新楼房合算
