Scholars often fail to see that music played an important role in the preservation of African culture in the United States. They correctly note that slavery stripped some cultural elements from Black people -- their political and economic systems -- but they underestimate the significance of music in sustaining other African cultural values. African music, unlike the music of some other cultures, was based on a total vision of life in which music was not an isolated social domain. In African culture music was pervasive, serving not only religion, but all phases of life, including birth, death, work, and play. The methods that a community devises to perpetuate itself come into being to preserve, aspects of the cultural legacy that that community perceives as essential. Music, like art in general, was so inextricably a part of African culture that it became a crucial means of preserving the culture during and after the dislocations of slavery.
In the passage, the phrase "isolated social domain" refers to______.
选项
A、African music in relation to contemporary culture as a whole
B、music as it may be perceived in non-African cultures
C、a feature of African music that aided in transmitting African cultural values
D、the influence of music on contemporary culture
答案
B
解析
文章随后指出非洲音乐和其他民族的音乐不同,“music was not an isolated social domain.”(非洲)音乐不是和人类社会孤立的社会领域。也就是说其他民族可能把音乐看成是一个孤立的社会领域。
