Before there was the written word, there was the language of dance. Dance expresses love and hate, joy and sorrow, life and death, and everything else in between. Dance in America is everywhere.
    We dance from Florida to Alaska, from horizon to horizon and coast to coast. We dance at weddings, birthdays, office parties or just to fill the time
.
    "I adore dancing," says Lester Bridges, the owner of a dance studio in a small town in Iowa. "I can’t imagine doing anything else with my life." Bridges runs dance classes for all ages. "Teaching dance is wonderful. My older students say it makes them feel young. It’s marvelous to watch them. For many of them, it’s a way of meeting people and having a social life." So why do we dance? "I can tell you about one young couple," says Bridges. "They arrive at the class in a bad mood and they leave with a smile. Dancing seems to change their mood completely."
    So, do we dance in order to make ourselves feel better, calmer, healthier? Andrea Hillier, a dance teacher says, "Dance, like the rhythm of a beating heart, is life. Even after all these years, I want to get better and better. I keep practicing even when I’m exhausted. I find it hard to stop! Dancing reminds me I’m alive."
    22. What does the passage say about dance in America?
    23. What do we know about Lester Bridges’ dance studio?
    24. What happened to the young couple after they attended Lester Bridges’ class?
    25. What did Andrea Hillier say about dancing?

选项 A、It is especially popular in Florida and Alaska.
B、It is a major social activity among the young.
C、It is seen almost anywhere and on any occasion.
D、It is even more expressive than the written word.

答案C

解析 本题问关于美国舞蹈,这篇短文讲了什么,录音开头提到,舞蹈在美国无处不在(Dance in America is everywhere)。然后用了一系列排比句式来说明舞蹈的普遍性(from Florida to Alaska,from horizon to horizon and coast to coast),而且还提到人们会在各种场合下跳舞甚至用来打发时间。C“舞蹈无处不在,任何场合都能看到”与录音意思相符,其中anywhere是对录音中everywhere的同义替换,on any occasion与录音中weddings…to fill the time对应。
