In the last quarter of a century, America has produced large 【C1】_____of musical plays that have been popular abroad 【C2】_____at home. 【C3】_____, it is very difficult to explain 【C4】_____is new or【C5】____American about them, for the 【C6】_____ are centuries old.
Perhaps the uniqueness of America’s contribution to the 【C7】_____can best be characterized through brief descriptions of several of the most important and best-known musicals. One of these is surely Oklahoma by Richard Rogers and Oscar Hamerstein. It burst 【C8】_____popularity in 1943. Broadway audience and critics were【C9】____by its 【C10】_____, vitality and excitement. This "new" type of musical was 【C11】_____as kind of 【C12】_____theater in which the play, the music and lyrics, the dancing, and the scenic background were assembled not merely to provide entertainment and 【C13】_____, but to【C14】____ in a single unifying whole to contribute to its unique feature. 【C15】_____, it meant that the songs and dances should 【C16】_____naturally out of the situations of the story and play an important part in carrying the action 【C17】_____. In Oklahoma, an American folk dance style was organically combined with classical ballet and modern dance. It is right to say that the musical was a brilliantly integrated performance by the talented dancers and singing actors.
Oklahoma also marked a new 【C18】_____in the choice of story on which a musical is based.

【C18】
选项
A、direction
B、way
C、method
D、epoch
答案
A
解析
语法类试题(动词搭配);上下文类试题。对比四个选项,与mark搭配适当的选项,只有direction和epoch,而mark a new epoch(标志着一个新的时代)用在这里显然不合适。原文的意思是“Oklahoma标志着选择音乐剧故事的一个新的方向”,最佳答案只有A项direction。
