   There are many theories about the beginning of drama in ancient Greece. The one most  【C1】______ accepted today is based on the assumption that drama evolved from ritual. The argument for this view goes as follows.
   In the beginning, human beings viewed the natural forces of the world, even the seasonal changes, as 【C2】______, and they sought, through various means, to control these unknown and feared powers. Those measures which appeared to bring the desired results were then 【C3】______ and repeated until they hardened into fixed rituals. Eventually stories arose which explained or veiled the mysteries of the rites. As time passed some rituals were 【C4】______, but the stories, later called myths, persisted and provided material for art and drama. Those who believe that drama evolved out of ritual also argue that those rites contained the 【C5】______ of theater because music, dance, masks, and costumes were almost always used. Furthermore, a suitable site had to be provided for performances, and when the entire community did not participate, a clear 【C6】______ was usually made between the "acting area" and the "auditorium." In addition, there were performers, and, since considerable importance was attached to 【C7】______ mistakes in the performance of rites, religious leaders usually 【C8】______ that task. Wearing masks and costumes, they often impersonated (模拟) other people, animals, or supernatural beings, and mimed the 【C9】______ effect—success in hunt or battle, the coming rain, the revival of the Sun—as an actor might. Such dramatic representations were 【C10】______ separated from religious activities.
【C7】
选项
答案C
解析 此处为attach importance to sth．“重视某物”的被动形式，to为介词，因此空格处可填入形容词修饰mistakes，也可填入可与mistakes搭配的动名词。仪式表演肯定不能出现失误，动名词avoiding“避免”符合此处语义，故选C。dodge mistakes“避免失误”语义也通，此处需要填入动名词，因而排除。
