问题     Dancer 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 through any of the traditional forms.
    This was in 1925. All forms of art were undergoing a revolution. The theories 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 of 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 only 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 这也是一道细节题，根据题干，我们定位到文章的倒数第二段。文章提到在20世纪30年代初，Martha Graham创办了她的当代舞蹈学校，将课堂作为自己舞台作品的实验室，而她的舞台作品反过来又吸引了新的学生。这就形成了一个自动循环的过程，而这一过程的关键正是Martha Graham本人。而文章最后一段进一步说明Martha Graham以及她所创办的学校对现代舞起着同样重要的作用。从中我们可以知道她的舞蹈学校很成功，培养了大批的人才。因此选择B。文章没有提及选项A“经营不善”，选项C“赚钱的和有效的”和选项D“现代舞蹈界的败笔”。
