问题     Danner Martha Graham trained her body to move in different ways and in different contexts from any before attempted. " Life today is nervous, sharp, and zigzag," she said, " it often stops in midair. That is what I aim for in my dances. " She insisted she never started out to be a rebel. It was only that the emotions she had to express could not be projected though any of the traditional forms.
    This was in 1925. All forms of art were undergoing a revolution. The theorized of psychology were being used to extend the boundaries of poetry, music, and painting.
    Martha Graham’s first dance concert in her new idiom occurred on April 18, 1926. Experts of dance gathered at the Forty - eight Street Theatre in New York and witnessed Martha Graham’s first foray into this new realm of dance. They saw, through such dance sequences as "Three Gobi Maidens" , and "A Study in Lacquer" , desires and conflicts expressed through bodily movement. These critics agreed that something entirely new, a departure from all previous forms had been witnessed.
    In the early thirties, she founded the Martha Graham School o Contemporary Dance. Her classes were used as laboratory for her stage works, and her stage works in turn were a means for attracting new pupils to her school - a sort of self - winding process, with herself as the key to the development.
    Martha Graham and the school she had founded are virtually equivalent to the modern dance. She had not produced a technique of dance, choreographed and taught it, but her students have gone out to fill the modern dance world.
Martha Graham’s school of dance was________.

选项 A、poorly managed
B、successful and popular
C、lucrative and effective
D、a failure in the modern dance world

答案B

解析 同样是一道考察细节的题型,首先分析题干“Martha Graham的舞蹈学校是……”。这道题可用排除法。选项A“经营不善”本文没有涉及,和选项D“现代舞蹈界的败笔”没提到。剩下选项C“赚钱和有效的”和选项B有待商榷,回到文章倒数第二段:“20世纪30年代初,Martha Graham创办了Martha Graham当代舞蹈学校,将班级作为自己舞台作品的实验室,反过来其舞台作品又吸引了新的学生。在这种自我发展的过程中,Martha Graham起到关键作用。”末段进一步说明Martha Graham以及她所创办的学校实际上相当于现代舞蹈。从以上讲述可知Martha Graham的舞蹈学校是很成功、很受欢迎的,因此排除C,正确答案为B。
