“After World War II, many of the cities across western European countries ,” our guide said.
A. lied in ruin
B. lay in ruins
C. lay in ruin
D. lying in ruins

A. lied in ruin(答案→)B. lay in ruinsC. lay in ruinD. lying in ruins解析：句意：我们的向导说：第二次世界大战后，西方的欧洲国家的大城市都成为废墟。lie in ruins成为废墟，这是固定短语，这里缺少的谓语动词，故排除D；lie的过去式是lay,根据时间状语可知，这里应该用过去式，故选B。

我也是这个答案
