Considering how jazz is transcribed in Chinese (jueshi), you may be【C1】______ into assuming that it is an aristocratic cultural form. Nothing could be further from the truth. It【C2】______among black Americans at the end of the 19th century, at a time when they occupied the very【C3】______of the American social heap.
So how has something that was created by a once downtrodden and【C4】______minority acquired a central place in today’s American culture? Mr. Darrell A Jenks, director of the American Center for Educational Exchange, and also a drummer in the jazz band Window, analyses the phenomenon for us here. Jazz: the【C5】______of America.
Perhaps the essence of America is that you could never get two Americans to agree on just what that might be. After thinking about it for a while, we might chuckle and say, "Hmm, seems like being American is a bit more complicated than we thought." Certainly things like【C6】______, success (the "American Dream" ), innovation and tolerance stand out. But these things come together because of our ability to work with one another and find common purpose no matter how we might be【C7】______.
Some, like African-American writer Ralph Ellison, believe that jazz【C8】______ the essence of America. For good reason, for in jazz all of the characteristics I mentioned above come together. The solos are a celebration of individual brilliance that can’t take place without the group efforts of the rhythm section. Beyond that, though, jazz has a connection to the essence of America in a much more fundamental【C9】______. It is an expression of the African【C10】______of American culture, a musical medium that exemplifies the culture of the Africans whose culture came to dominate much of what is American.
A. diverse B. distinctive C. bottom D. trapped
E. soul F. way G. misled H. captures
I. despised J. originated K. culture L. individualism
M. roots N. top O. acquires
【C8】
选项
答案
H
解析
captures,词义辨析题。根据词性,此处应当填入动词。且根据句子语法可判断应当填入动词现在时的第三人称单数,故可选范围为“captures,acquires”。两词都有“获取”之意,但前者有“代表(特点);表现,体现(感情、气氛)”的含义,如Chef Idris Caldora offers an inspired menu that captures the spirit of the Mediterranean.“厨师伊德里斯-卡尔多拉开出一份富有地中海特色的菜单,让人眼前一亮。”而acquire更强调“通过后天的努力获取知识、技能”。故此处答案为captures。
