✔ 最佳答案
1.答案是不是 D？
Chic 是指「潮」，跟 fashionable 同義。
Well-decorated 是指「很好地粉飾過」，但「很好地粉飾過」可以是粉飾 in an old-fashioned style，也可以是 in the latest style，所以在這裡用的話，就不太能特地表達出「潮」的意思。
2.
答案是不是 B？
問題在問你「Red Capital Club」而不是那座「courtyard house」的事情。Red Capital Club 是最近新開的，故一定不是之前由清朝的「Manchu nobleman」所擁有。
希望幫到你。

Kandy:
(a) Chic means stylish and fashionable as Mochizuki said, it is about the style. As you can read from the paragraph, "Its appeal is nostalgia and exclusivity", so D is better. For you concern, option C well-decorated may not refer to the style, it is not the best among the four.
2013-08-24 06:03:44 補充：
(b) ”Tables must be reserved in advance.” 一定要先訂枱。
”It's impossible to get a table without reservation.”
沒有預約就不可能有枱。
兩者應該脗合吧。
