问题 What is rhythm in literature according to the passage?
  
Rhythm in literature is a more or less regular occurrence of certain elements of writing a word, a phrase, an idea, a pause, a sound, or a grammatical construction. We are also accustomed to this recurrence in the alternate heavy and light beats in music. Our love for rhythm seems to be innate : witness the response of a small child to lively music. Children love to beat on toy drums or empty boxes. They stamp their feet and chant nursery rhythms or nonsense syllables, not like primitive dancers. As children grow older, they are taught to restrain their responses to rhythm, but our love of rhythm remains. We live in rhythms: in fact we are governed by rhythms.
    Physiologically, we are rhythmical. We must eat, sleep, breathe, and play regularly to maintain good health. Emotionally we are rhythmical, too, for psychologists say that all of us feel alternate periods of being in high spirits of concentration. It naturally follows that rhythm, a fundamental aspect of our lives, must be a part of any good literary works, whether poetry or prose.

选项 A、Rhythmic patterns in literature.
B、Rhythm in writing.
C、The place of rhythm in the lives of human beings.

答案C

解析 文章从rhythm的定义出发,首先指出节奏性是人生来就有的,人类生活在节奏中,同时受到节奏的约束。而后具体讲生理和情感的节奏性,最后指出人类生活的节奏性使文学作品也带有节奏的美感,故C项“节奏在人类生活中的位置”正确。
