参考解析
解析：开篇首先指出近年状况——英国高街的银行、邮局和酒吧等逐渐消失，继而指出现今形势一一消失速度和规模非比寻常，后对此做出进一步说明。可见高街的零售和休闲场所正经历着史无前例的消亡’D.中Reiail and Ieisure是对文中的banks，post office and pubs、bars and restaurants等的概括．dy:ng unprecedentedly对应文中的disappearing、casualties.…exceptional。[解题技巧]A.源自③句.…once ex-banks could be readily converLed into pubs，但此处意在指出“以往改建的方便可行性”，与当前现象无关。B.根据③句中碎片信息innovative和traditional shops臆断而来，但此处为更早之前的现象（高街已被传统商店所抛弃），且不涉及创新型商店信息，其次选项体现的“良好势头”与文意“创新型酒吧和饭店曾有望使高街复兴，现在这种趋势也无望了”相反。C.将首句主体“高街的银行、邮局和酒吧”窜改为“公共服务”，并将其消失原因杜撰为“丧失了价值”。
