Music comes in many forms; most countries have a style of their own.【C1】the turn of the last century when jazz (爵士乐) was born, America had no prominent【C2】of its own. 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 is a spontaneous and free form. It bubbles with energy,【C7】the mood, interest, and emotions of the people. In the 1920s jazz【C8】like America, and【C9】it does today.
The【C10】of this music are as interesting as the music【C11】. American Negroes, or blacks, as they are called today, were the jazz【C12】. They were brought to Southern States【C13】slaves. They were sold to plantation owners and forced to work long【C14】. When a Negro died his friends and relatives【C15】a procession to carry the body to the cemetery. In New Orleans, a band often accompanied the【C16】. On the way to the cemetery the band played slow, solemn music suited to the occasion.【C17】on the way home the mood changed. Spirits lifted. Death had removed one of their【C18】, but the living were glad to be alive. The band played【C19】music, improvising (即兴表演) on both the harmony and the melody of the tunes【C20】at the funeral. This music made everyone want to dance. It was an early form of jazz.
【C3】
选项
A、discovered
B、acted
C、invented
D、designed
答案
C
解析
语义衔接题。A)discovered“发现”一般指发现已经存在或客观存在、但尚不为人所知的事物,爵士乐是人创作的而不是早已存在而未被人发现的,故排除;B)acted意为“表演”,演奏爵士乐不是一次性的行为,所以“无人确切知道在何时演奏了爵士乐”不合情理;D)designed“设计”指有计划地创造,不合常理。从下文的描述中也可以看出爵士乐是在生活中逐步产生、发展和定型的,故答案为C)invented。
