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, the art of expression, is spontaneous and free-form.

【C16】
选项
A、demonstration
B、procession
C、body
D、march
答案
B
解析
词汇辨析。本句意为“送葬队伍通常伴以乐队”,根据上文中的句子“a procession to carrythe body to the cemetery”中出现了procession,故选B。其他选项中,demonstration意为“示威”,body意为“遗体”,march意为“行军”,均不符合句意。
