In the last quarter of a century, America has produced large 【B1】______ of musical plays that have been popular abroad 【B2】______ at home.【B3】______, it is very difficult to explain 【B4】______ is new or 【B5】______ American about them, for the 【B6】______ are centuries old.
Perhaps the uniqueness of America’s contribution to the 【B7】______ can best be characterized through brief descriptions of several of the most important and best-known musicals. One of these is surely Oklahoma by Richard Rogers and Oscar Hamerstein. It burst 【B8】______ popularity in 1943. Broadway audience and critics were【B9】______by its【B10】______, vitality and excitement. This "new" type of musical was【B11】______as kind of【B12】______theater in which the play, the music and lyrics, the dancing, and the scenic background were assembled not merely to provide entertainment and【B13】______, but to【B14】______in a single unifying whole to contribute to its unique feature.【B15】______, it meant that the songs and dances should【B16】______naturally out of the situations of the story and play an important part in carrying the action【B17】______. In Oklahoma, an American folk-dance style was organically combined with classical ballet and modern dance. It is right to say that the musical was a brilliantly integrated performance by the talented dancers and singing actors.
Oklahoma also marked a new【B18】______in the choice of story on which a musical is based. Writers and composers began to abandon the sentimentally picturesque or aristocratic setting【B19】______more realistic stories in authentic social and cultural【B20】______.

【B18】
选项
A、direction
B、way
C、method
D、epoch
答案
A
解析
考查名词辨析。四个选项中,只有direction和epoch与mark搭配适当,而mark a newepoch“标志着一个新的时代”用在这里显然不合适。原文的意思是“Oklahoma标志着选择音乐剧故事的一个新的方向”,因此最佳答案为A.direction“方向”。
