There are many theories about the beginning of drama in ancient Greece. The one most widely accepted today is based on the assumption that drama【C1】________ from rituals. The argument for this view goes as follows. In the beginning, human beings viewed the natural forces of the world, even the seasonal changes, as【C2】________ , and they sought through various means, to control these unknown and fearful powers. Those measures which appeared to bring the desired results were then retained and repeated until they hardened into fixed【C3】________ . Eventually stories arose which explained or veiled the mysteries of the rites. As time passed, some rituals were abandoned, but the stories later provided material for art and drama.
People also argue that those rites contained the seed of【C4】________ because music, dance, masks, and costumes were almost always used. Furthermore, a suitable site had to be provided for performances, and when the entire community did not participate, a clear division was usually made between the "acting area" and the “auditorium." In addition, there were performers, and since【C5】________ importance was attached to avoiding mistakes in the establishment of rites, religious leaders usually【C6】________ that task. Wearing masks and costumes, they often impersonated other people, animals, or supernatural beings, and mimed the【C7】________ effect — success in hunt or battle, the coming rain, the revival of the Sun — as an actor might.
Another theory traces the theater’s【C8】________ from the human interest in storytelling. According to this view, tales are【C9】________ elaborated, at first through the use of impersonation, action, and dialogue by a narrator and then through the assumption of each of the roles by a different person. A closely related theory【C10】________ theater to those dances that are primarily rhythmical and gymnastic, or they are imitations of animal movements and sounds.
A. traces B. gradually C. community D. desired
E. accepted F. developed G. theater H. thoughtful
I. assumed J. unpredictable K. evolved L. considerable
M. rapidly N. rituals O. origin

上下文关键词复现题。根据词性,此处应当填入名词复数。上下文阐述了drama的起源,Those measures which appeared to bring the desired res alts were then retained and repeated“那些似乎带来了满意结果的手段就被保留下来并反复使用”,As time passed,some rituals were abandoned,but the stories later provided material for art and drama.“随着时间的推移,一些仪式被废弃了……”。由此可见,前后文皆是围绕rituals这一关键词而谈,故选rituals。
