【解析】25題題干中出現“title”，識別該題為主旨題。由首段首句”The longest bull run in a century of art-market history ended on a dramatic note with a sale of 56 works by Damien Hirst, Beautiful Inside My Head Forever, at Sotheby’s in London on September 15th 2008.”可知本文圍繞“藝術品市場的繁榮結束”展開，對應選項[C] Art Market in Decline，因此判斷C為正確答案。
