问题     Music comes in many forms; most countries have a style of their own.【C1】________the turn of the century when jazz (爵士乐) was born, America had no prominent【C2】________of its own. No one knows exactly when jazz was【C3】________, or by whom. But it began to be【C4】________in the early 1900s. Jazz is America’s contribution to【C5】________music. In contrast to classical music, which【C6】________formal European traditions, jazz is spontaneous and free-form. It bubbles with energy,【C7】________moods, interests, and emotions of the people. In the 1920s jazz【C8】________ like America,【C9】________ it does today.
    The【C10】________of this music are as interesting as the music【C11】________, American Negroes, or blacks, as they are called today, were the Jazz【C12】________.

【C4】
选项 A、noticed
B、found
C、listened
D、heard
答案A
解析 本填空可以依据前一句中的提示线索定位，因为前一句的原文已知信息为“No one knows exactly when jazz was________，or by whom．”，即“没有人知道爵士乐确切的产生时间以及由谁创造”；然后本填空所在的句子为“But it began to be ________in the early 1 900s．”，所以这里很容易确定本填空的大体意思应该为“被注意到、为人所知”，这个顺序是：爵士乐先被发明，之后被人所知，在四个选项中，最能够准确表达“被注意到、为人所知”的是选项A)noticed。最大的干扰项是B)found“被找到”，显然是不合适的。
