Explanation
The key clue is: “instead of being torn down.” So we need a word that suggest preserving or valuing buildings, not destroying them.
A. built: This doesn’t fit (they already exist)
B. forgotten: This is opposite of preservation
C. destroyed: This is same as torn down
D. praised: Do not fits (valued/appreciated instead of demolished)
E. repaired: This fits (physically preserved/restored)
Answer: E
