问题     Some psychologists maintain that mental acts such as thinking are not performed in the brain alone, but that one’s muscles also participate. It may be said that we think with our muscles in somewhat the same way that we listen to music with our bodies.
    You surely are not surprised to be told that you usually listen to music not only with your ears but with your whole body. Few people can listen to music that is more or less familiar without moving their body or, more specifically, some part of their body. Often when one listens to a symphonic concert on the radio, he is tempted to direct the orchestra even though he knows there is a competent conductor on the job.
    Strange as this behavior may be, there is a very good reason for it. One cannot derive all possible enjoyment from music unless he participates, so to speak, in its performance. The listener "feels" himself into the music with more or less pronounced motions of his body.
    The muscles of the body actually participate in the mental process of thinking in the same way, but this participation is less obvious because it is less pronounced.
The "pronounced motions" of the body is a music listener’s way of______.

选项 A、performing with his body
B、directing the orchestra playing the music
C、enjoying and participating in the music
D、expressing how he likes the music

答案C

解析 本题是一道具体细节题。问听音乐的人的一些明显的身体运动是他们做什么的一种方式。利用查阅式阅读法,我们可以在文章的第三段中找到与正确答案相关的信息。这一段指出,虽然听音乐时人们的身体也会随着音乐的节奏移动,这样的举止未免有些奇怪,但却有其相当充分的理由。可以这么说,除非参与到音乐的演奏中,否则人们就不可能从音乐中得到全部享受。听音乐的人通过或多或少的明显的身体动作来“体验”音乐。因此,本题的正确答案应是C“听音乐的人的明显的身体动作是他欣赏和参与音乐的一种方式”。
